 |
|
Just wanted to bring the group up to date on the Kolb that was going to be burned at the end of flying season last year. Sad to say that, according to the owner, he burned it last November as he had planned. Now, the purpose of this post is not to get anyone in an uproar, but rather, to put the word out to take care of each other. This pilot had no one to fly with and felt left out. Then SP came along and he had that to deal with. This was the only way he felt he had left to cope with,and respond to changes he had no control over. I tried to convince him he had other alternatives, but I wasn't local to him and couldn't make headway. The good news is he is happily pursuing another sport with lots of friends. Sad about the machine though.

Where's the photos?
Luckily, I have never seen a Kolb burn.
Tried to burn up my mkIII during initial 912 installation in 1994.
Got the reg/rec hooked up incorrectly. Was on the telephone, inside
the house, smelled an electrical fire, stuck my head out the door and
saw smoke and flames coming out from under my brand new engine.
Luckily, had a halon fire extinguisher on board to douse the flames.
Cost me a new reg/rec, some wiring, and scorched paint. Could have
been a lot worse. Lesson learned, I hope.
