Good to know that Peter Eich is still in business. By the way, he has a
wonderful KR2 part: seats backrests. I bought mine from him for about $80,
and they are great. A bit of upholstery on top, and job done.
I can testify that his cowling and spinners are great, too.
With regards to the South African PPL, it is pretty easy to convert in a
UK PPL. But in that case, your license is stamped "foreing conversion",
and then, the other JAR states have no obligation to let you fly. The
French would not convert my SA license, so I have to redo a PPL here. My
only exemption is my fight time is valid. Go figure...

Objet : KR> Ribs, Foam and Plywood - replacement parts for Serge
By the way, they were not made by Dan Diehl. They were made in South
Africa, where one guy used to have a KR2 license from Ken Rand, and was
manufacturing and marketing the pre-molded parts locally.

If you ever need new parts - you can get exact replacements (from the
same moulds) - I gather from Jaco Swanepoel [jacosw...@yahoo.com] that
Peter Eich still has the moulds and offers: (Prices may have changes
slightly)
Wing skins - ZAR (US$ 1,250)
Stub wing - ZAR 2,000 ($335)
Cowling - ZAR 1,200 ($200)
Spinner - ZAR 800 ($135)
Very nice canopies (stretched / widened) are available ex CT - ZAR 1500
($250). This included fitting to the pre-made canopy frame. Can also
be tinted.
Did you have any hassles converting a ZS PPL to Europe - I gather that
the Euro / UK (JAR) requirements are stiff?
Take care
Steve J
