Hi guys, I just wanted to let you know today I got a chance to go for a flight with Ken Thomas in his KR-2S. It has a jabiru 3300 engine in it putting out 120 hp, so even with the two of us and full fuel we got off the ground rather quickly. I had talked to Ken last Friday since I am thinking about buying a KR-2 and wanted to see what one looked like and what size the cockpit is. He had told me how sensitive the elevator is, so I used his method of resting your wrist on your thigh and only using a finger and thumb to control the stick. I didn't have any trouble controlling the plane, Ken said I did a good job flying, and we did a few touch and goes. All I can say after flying one is wow! If all kr's fly that well I can see why there are so many builders and pilots. Lastly, if all in the KR community are even half as friendly as Ken I know I'm joining a terrific group.
Sincerely, David Gilley
