Good advise Mark. Sometimes our want of an airplane can lead us down the road to financial misfortune. I've seen projects and flying KR's that I wouldn't take home or fly if the owner paid ME. Sellers should do their best to qualify what they are selling and buyers should approach a sale with the attitude of "mistakes could be fatal". If you are looking to purchase a KR an not familiar with the design, find someone who is and ask for their help. When I began with a "just started" project I had to totally remove the entire firewall and trash the spars. I ended up with a three sided, open ended boat, with additional building material, that I probably paid too much for. There are good projects and good deals out there. Just take the time to know what you're getting. Caveat emptor........................... HAPPY NEW YEAR TO ALL............................. Larry Flesner
