I don't suppose there are any lurkers who are Mk IIIC builders in Kansas or Oklahoma, are there? Preferably with an uncovered fuselage weldment so I can take lots of measurements. Mine took a good twist when the left main gear was pulled off and I have no idea how far the damage spread through the truss.

Rick,
Although I'm not in Kansas anymore, (same as Dorothy & ToTo), I wouldn't mind making dozens of measurements
and LOTs of pictures for you, if you want. Just let me know.
I'm in Tampa, though, on a mini-vacation. We're headed back home on Saturday/Sunday. If you could wait until
Monday, I'll get ya all the info you'll need.

(PS. For the record....none of "that" area of my fuselage is altered to be an Xtra....in other words, it's identical to
yours..just straighter.)

Mike, I appreciate the offer, but there are things you just can't get to after the fuselage is covered. At this point I think I'll finish the Firestar first, put the 582 on it and have a hot rod to play around in then sell it next spring to finance a new cage for the Mk III, or not.

Rick,
Ok, but the offer to take photos etc, still stands. Something to ponder, though,
I DO know of a guy with a MkIIIC cage that is NOT covered.
His name is Brian Fell. He contacted the Kolb list back around November asking
if anyone had converted a MkIIIC to an X. I mentioned Ken's Xtra that you were working on,
and of course, mine.
He and I have had lots of 'off-list' emails, where I was suggesting how I'd go about the
change differently, etc. He is VERY slow to get going with his conversion, evidently $$$
slowing him down quite a bit.
About 3 weeks ago, he reemerged when he sent me a 'joking' email of his newly
arrived Xtra nosecone, propped in place on the front of the MkIIIC frame....and said it
didn't fit. The last I heard prior to going on our mini-vacation was he hadn't started anything yet.
If you haven't had much of a response to your request for your MkIIIC info,
etc, and you are still in need of 'bare frame' measurements, pictures, dimensions, etc, let me
know, and I'll see if I can get him to get you fixed up. Whatever works best!
Mike

Kolb list people,
My apologies for the last email response to Rick G being sent to this list. It was only
intended to be returned to Rick G. When he responded to me off-list to my offer to help,
I intended my reply to only just go to him, and never noticed when I pushed "reply" that it
addressed itself back to the Kolb list. Oops. Sorry.
Brian Fell, Howdy!! Guess what I was going to ask you to do for Rick G? haha
