Chris: I've always thought that it would be very cool to build a war bird replica of the Mosquito, using a twin KR-2 as the plan under the skin. What do you think? We could always use a couple of Corvair engines and get that part of the KR family involved. Anyway everyone, have a great holidays, and think of Peace.
