Weather is cruddy in Central Alabama.  Got my gold plated Bing Carb 

parts yesterday.  Will try to get them installed, along with new 

throttle cables today.



Plan to depart for MV Tuesday morning.  That'll put me into MV 

Thursday afternoon, 18 May.  I can still leave as late as Wednesday 

and get there Friday morning.



Weather looks good at this time for the flight from here all the way 

to MV.



Looking forward to MV, seeing my old buddies and meeting new ones.



Also time for another Navajo Taco and some Navajo Fry Bread and honey.



The service station/convenience store has some pretty good fried 

chicken too.



And the resturant has excellent coffee.

I will be departing from El Paso, TX Thursday morning and should be there in

the afternoon.  They have thunderstorms forecast for center to northern New

Mexico so my itinerary is not set in stone.  Dave Rains will be flying in

from Dallas on Thursday in his Cessna.

Good on ya, pardner!



Must say I miss the excitement involved in serious cross country 

flying in a FS and a two stroke.  Cut my cross country teeth on them a 

few years ago.



Have a super, safe flight, Will!

Gang:



The old Garmin GPS 196 is updated, both Jeppesen and Obstacle 

Clearance.



Some time back John W informed me that I was legal to fly with updated 

Jep Data Base, even though my sectionals were out of date.  That 

covers the MKIII for insurance purposes, and keeps me relatively safe 

from landing at what I think are uncontrolled airports that suddenly 

sprout an operational control tower.  Ooooops!



The Obstacle Data Base is not 100%, but it is much better than flying 

low level without that capability.



GPS has made our sport much, much safer.  Saves a lot of time and fuel 

navigating cross country.  Would be hard to go back to the sectional 

and mag compass.



Chile Rellenos are one of my favorite.  Will give them a try when I 

get to Gouldings.



Take care,



john h

Hi All,



I'll be leaving Tucson in my Mark III with a Zenith 701. Will pick up another Zenith 701 in Payson, AZ. The 3 of us will leave the Tucson area around 0500 hrs. Thursday and be in MV about 1200 hrs. A Rans S12 should also be flying up Friday from the Tucson area. Looks like fun in the sun.

I just spent $30.95 on sectionals and WACs. 

I will be making short flight hopefully not lasting more then 2 hours each.

Here is my planed flight; I may have to deviate around some thunderstorms

and restricted areas.

T27 to KTCS 121 miles

KTCS to KGNT 130 miles

KGNT to KGUP 55.4 miles

KGUP to UT25 131 miles



Dave will be carrying my camping gear in his Cessna so if he is held up in

route due to weather I will be sleeping under a tree.  Tree???? Whats that?



Regards,

Will U.

I'll trade ya - enchiladas and rellenos for another ride in Miss P'fer. 

Wel-l-l-l-l........maybe I'll throw in some gas money, too, considering the 

price of the stuff.  



The Navajo Tacos are so good I didn't try anything different till the last 

meal last year.  The New Mexico style chicken enchiladas and chile rellenos 

at Goulding's are terrific, and very different from what we get here.



The output is re-assembled on Vamoose' engine, it's partly cleaned up, and 

the re-drive will go back on tomorrow.  All going well, it should be running 

tomorrow and we'll see about that stubborn oil leak.  I think I got it - 

finally.  Several changes have been made.



The camper will go back on the truck tomorrow, as well, after a couple of 

weeks off, and I've already started sorting gear.  Sounds like this is gonna 

be a good visit this time........as have all the others been.

All MV 2006 attendees



I hope everyone has another wonderful trip to Monument Valley this year. I 

can't describe how much I'm going to miss it this year. I was only there one 

year and didn't have my plane there but it was very special.  I will miss 

giving Big Lar a rough time, the great photo flight I had with Dave in his 

Cessna and all the great people that attended last year. MAYBE next year I 

will figure a way to get my plane out there.



Everyone have a safe trip I will be waiting for reports.

Fire away, Gridley.  We can handle it.     If you'll promise to be there 

next year, I'll promise to bring Vamoose.  (I hope   Tomorrow will tell 

the story, tho' it's hard to work out there........temps were over 100 

today - have been all week - and fairly humid.  I hafta say that all went 

well today, and everything looks very good, tho' I mis-doubt my safety 

wiring will win any beauty awards.  It'll do the job, tho'............... 

Optimism rules.                  Lar.            Do not Archive.

I am sure all that are attending MV will have a safe trip  and I wish all of 

you great weather for the event ( wishing I had time to make it myself )

After working on the big airliners that I have been working on lately with my 

new job   the More I realize how much better  a Kolb is built really its kind 

of scary how these big birds are built  things are so delicate 

 and have a safe trip back home with great weather as well 

I'll be looking forward to the pictures and all you guys have to say about 

the MV Kolb Gathering

Dunno if I can speak for the others, but I'm like a little kid.  Excitement 

is building, anticipation the same.  My living room is a mess with stuff 

already being sorted and mulled over.  Sigh........just 4 more days till I 

leave.......after work on Wed.                  Lar.               Do not

Hi Everyone,



Checked the ten day forcast. Highs are supposed to be around 83-85 and lows around 53-55. I believe this is ten degrees cooler than last year. Should make for some nice flying weather. The people from Arizona will have to wear a jacket in the mornings. The people from the east and north will probably think it's summer at 55 degrees. (burrrr)  LOL

Rain percentage is 10-20%, which translates out here to "no rain".

Since I am driving to Monument Valley, Mark-III in tow, I'll throw some

firewood into the back of my truck.  Also, I'll have donuts and a pot of hot

coffee going on Friday morning, in the parking area at Goulding's airstrip.

Is Dave Rains again planning to bring cases of excellent German beer in his

hauls-everything Cessna-175?  Looking forward to seeing everybody ...

MV Group,



I am packing the motorhome today. Kathy and I plan to drive to Monument Valley on Friday. It will be the first stop of our summer vacation. No Firestar this year, but at least we will make it. Looking forward to seeing you all there.

The Firefly is secured and ready for the trip to MV.  Qing, Ming and I will leave tomorrow (Wed) around 5am and plan to arrive in MV sometime on Thurs. We will do a little sightseeing on the way and take it easy so it will likely be Thursday afternoon when we get in to Gouldings.   The trailer will be in the familiar spot, just above the playground.  We will be heading out for Tucson after dinner on Saturday night.... we've got to get Ming (8th grader) back for school on Monday, her last week before the summer break.



Looking forward to seeing everyone that is coming this year!  Hope you all have safe travels!!  See you soon.
