Tom,
You could do what I do... keep your Kolb folded, in an enclosed trailer, at the airport. I pay the outdoor tiedown rate, the plane is protected, and I don't have to tow it every time I fly (but it's easy to bring it home to work on it, or for the winter).
I've never flown a Challenger, but I get the impression from those who have that the Kolbs are MUCH nicer flying planes.

I like the Challenger I am flying so much that I'd love to have one. But with the fuselage covered, rather than a tube, I'd have to cover the whole plane with wing covers. I've wanted to build an airplane for a long time now, but finally realized I just don't have the time. Thus the FireFly would be perfect in that I can tow it to the field. And if I'm lucky, I might be able to find space in someone's hangar for the folded bird. |
