The question is whether it is necessary or common to glass the sides of the fuselage. ?The answer is no, it is not necessary, but yes, it is fairly common. ?Larry did his. ?Dan didn't glass his. ?The plans don't call for it, not that any of us pay much attention to the plans.
Just my opinion, but I'm with Dan on this one. ?My KR has nearly 1000 hrs flight time and over 16 years behind it now and isn't showing any ill effects from being finished with primer and paint. -Jeff Scott Los Alamos, NM > ----- Original Message ----- > From: Robert Boyd > Sent: 09/13/13 01:16 PM > To: krnet at list.krnet.org > Subject: KR> to glass or not to glass > > Is it necessary or common to cover the fuselage with a layer of glass?
