While I certainly agree pre flight checklists like "remove elevtor control lock", the KR series of aircraft allows (for a nice word) a multitude of components exclusive to an individual airplane. Most people will have different canopy latches, different fuel systems, different avionic systems. I'll give this as an example. When we started Jeff York's newly bought KR for the first time, figuring out the fuel flow system within the cockpit was the first order of business. As I recall three different fuel flow valves were inside the cockpit, along with a drain. Some basic items such as aileron ckeck, elevator check, rudder check, prop, etc. on the outside and items such as oil pressure check, amp check, fuel check, trim check should be standard there will no "one size fits all" list.
Make one up, I'll have one, you wouldn't believe the number of RV tipup canopy flyers have there canopy open to the 4" mark because they forgot to latch the handle behind their head. How much building time would it take................what, an hour to make one up!! Dana Overall 1999 & 2000 National KR Gathering host Richmond, KY RV-7 slider/fuselage Finish kit ordered!!
