Kolbers:
Been a fun three weeks and now it is time to start thinking about the flight back to Alabama.
This morning I flew the Owyhee Canyon with Larry Cottrell and Roger Hankins, all the other Kolbers are gone but John Gilprin. When I got back to the Rock House I did a thorough post flight inspection. Discovered the bottom #3 cylinder spark plug wire cap was loose enough to drop off the plug with a little tug from one finger. The hardened fine wire spring that rides on the plug threadsed stud had failed.
Luckily, I saved two of the good caps from the last time I changed spark plug wire caps and stuck them in my little flight bag in the event this might happen.
Time to start watching winds and weather between the Rock House and Gantt IAP, Alabama.
A great time was had by all that attended the Rock House Kolb Flyin. Looking forward to next year.
Take care,
john h
