Posted: Tue Jul 10, 2012 5:56 pm Post subject: Kolb List - Social Media?

It seems that the Kolb List is degenerating into a social media list rather 

than a technical list for the building, maintaining and improving Kolb of 

aircraft.  Over 50 percent of the posts have nothing to do with the previous 

sentence.  I really don't mind but since a minuscule few use the term "do 

not archive" to prevent corrupting the archives, as so as time goes on the 

archives become less and less meaningful.



What brought this on?  Someone put up a jump to some photos taken from space 

and another person objected and then posted a group of photos with no 

mention of Kolb or how they were Kolb related.  This was followed by a 

forest fire close to Rock House.  To accommodate these interesting but non 

technical topics, it might be useful to start a social media kolb list on 

Facebook, so that these posts have a place to go with out corrupting the 

Kolb List.

Jack H/Kolbers:



Couldn't have been a forest fire at the Rock House.  There are no trees.



I believe cross country flights in our Kolbs are an intricate part of

building and flying Kolbs, and have been for many, many years.



I also believe Kolb Flyins like our former Kolb Homecoming, Monument Valley

Flyins, and now the Rock House Flyins are what makes this List live on.



Based on the amount of traffic, I doubt there is a need for a Social Media

Kolb List.



Photos of my Flight West 2012 are the only "group of photos" I am aware of

having been recently posted.  Do you disapprove of this?

If the post is anything Kolb related I want it on the list.  Videos,

pictures, reports of cross country flights, and especially building,

maintaining or any issue dealing with safety and Kolb aircraft.  I go to

the archives to get answers for technical questions SO please put DO NOT

ARCHIVE for those things that are more social in nature and I remain a

very happy camper.  I agree with John H that the “social” stuff keeps our

list alive.  It adds a sense of comradeship that is beneficial to most

human endeavors this list included.  Keep the Archives pure.  Use “DO NOT

ARCHIVE generously.

There IS a Kolb group on Facebook.  Currently has 52 members, most of whom are frequent contributors to this (the Kolb Matronics) list.

Hi John.  All your e-mails are a "must read" in my book. You are an 

inspiration to all Kolbers and I admire your courage to take to the air on 

all the trips across the North America continent. I did my first cross 

country trip yesterday and although it was only one hour long it is a start. 

Hope to get my license this summer before my 80th birthday. All the best, 

Clyde MacQuarrie.

Congratulations on your flight training.  Best of luck to you and your

aviation adventures.



When people your age get off their butt and take flying lessons, makes me

feel like a "spring chicken".
