As with everything, it is all weather dependent. Am looking at heading up
Wed morning. Return Sat afternoon or Sun a.m.
Is there a KR group get together? Can we make one?

Hey Guys,
Just wanted to put this out front. I was talking with one of our local
guys here in New Orleans. Bever Borne is the distributor for one of the
ultralights. He is actually the manufacturer. And I mentioned that I was
going up to Mount Vernon for a convention. Apparently he had just be
I see a couple of guys are driving and it looks like the weather will be
good enough to fly.
If anyone on my route or at least close to it - mostly due north from New
Orleans - is not going because they don't have a ride, call me.
Unless the weather changes, I'm flying.
See you Thursday.

I was just about to check the weather again. Storming cats and dogs here
right now. Hope Mother Nature gets it all out of her system by Thursday.
Thanks for the weather update. I'll check anyway. But lookin' good.

I'm ready. Watching the weather. We should be fine.
Couple of years ago there was a storm in the Gulf, far enough out to be
safe. Gave me a 40 knot tailwind. Fantastic.
But, even if I'm forced to drive, I'll still be there.

Hello All,
Am also throwing this out to everyone. I will be flying a Sundowner from
New Orleans on up to Mount Vernon. Anybody need a ride? That's vaguely on
the way?
Maybe share some gas? For me it's mostly due north. Could take up to two
(three if skinny) riders.
Or we'll fly together and
Please accept my apology for violating the etiquette of replying this way,
but the subject demands it. I mentioned a few years ago I was able to
experience a high altitude chamber (set to simulate 25,000' msl).
In less than 5 minutes I couldn't use a pencil much less fly a plane. And

Hello Guys,
Just wanted to mention something that came up today that everyone should
know. I bought a new plane power alternator. You need to remove the gear
from your old one and reuse it on the new alternator (except for bushings -
those are supposed to be new). Pretty easy to take off and eas
Hello All,
Am looking for a prop for an O-200 engine. Just want one for testing
purposes. Still trying to figure out what prop/pitch to buy. In the
interim, I would like a loaner prop. Anybody have an old one that they're
not using? Let me borrow it and I'll give it back at the Gathering. Or
Just had to state this. You northern guys talk about flying in cold air -
better lift, smoother, no density altitude issues etc.
Well it got cold here and the place is shut down. Couldn't get to the
airport if I wanted to, much less go flying. Or even to work on anything

Agree with Larry. If I end up with a fuel sensor when I finally get all my
instruments, so be it. if not, I'm not worried. I always fly by time. I
plan and book the maximum burn in my Sundowner at 10 gallons per hour.
Leaned out at altitude, I can get it just under 8. That not only covers my

And of course the infamous Sundowner made it home as well. Sucked a little
more gas and still went a little slower, but remember guys, that tortoise
did beat the hare.
Glad everybody made it with no issues. I haven't seen the weather out

An excellent Gathering. had fun
I plan on flying in but won't be in a KR (sorry).

So terrible. To see this historic (and wonderful) trip cut short is truly
a tragedy. Thank God Colin is OK. You can always get another plane.

Definitely buy it ASAP. I just did that. Bought an O-200 that only has
1,086 hours on the engine, but has not flown in a decade. getting it ready
for a test run. Worst case scenario is that I get a lot of good parts that
still are worth more than what I paid for it. best case scenario is I get

So sorry to hear the bad news. But the good news is you're here to talk about
it. Get well soon. When this is behind you and you feel up to it, we all
would love a debriefing.

Government is the same all over. I long for the days when you could do
something over a handshake - and both parties complied. Now you need a
lawyer and forms in triplicate just to something with/on your own
property. Where will it end?
Stay tough Colin. You're the last of a dying breed - real
Hello All,
Just working on my MA-3 carb. Does anyone have a rebuild manual for one?
Preferably electronic? Maybe a decent place to get a rebuild kit from?
Didn't see a whole lot in the archives.
Thanks.

I'm planning on it. Sadly, I will be driving. But will be camping.
Arrive Wednesday. Leave Sunday.
Hope to pick up the last parts I need to get me at least mostly done.

Terrible as it is, he is the luckiest guy around. Kept his head straight.
Better to recover from an injury than the alternative.
And mine has a header tank. May have to rethink things.

Now that we can put all of the name changing stuff behind us, we can start
