To: John Hauck and others
Thanks John for the update on the trip to FL.. Glad you and the plane made it safe there and back.
Thank you for being a great representative for Kolb and being a true pioneer in cross country flying of the Kolb MKIII. So glad no one from the Kolb family was hurt and certainly that no one else was seriously injured at the airshow. Talked to Travis Friday.
John H, Rick N. and Richard P., Travis B., I am installing the windshield on my MKIIIX and have the lexan in place with clecos. I am a little concerned about the right side as the lexan seems to want to bubble or flex inward if I apply a little pressure. I would have thought the curves in the lexan would have caused it to be fairly ridged. I realize it is a long span for the lexan along the frame that forms the top of the door post.
Do you all have any flexing in your windshields? I can foresee the windshield flexing in some at 80 mph. Any suggestions?

Bob,
I just finished final install of my windshield a few weeks ago. It's very stiff and I have no concern about wind deflection. You did use the 1/8" thick lexan and not the thinner stuff which is for the doors and window panels?
