Mark, I have flown only one other tail dragger, a Champ, but I found the KR much easier to fly. You don't have the visibility, but you get used to it quickly However, I don't recommend it for a low time trike pilot unless you get some training. The good news is that you don't have to fly it by yourself as it is already certified. Find a good instructor and go out and have fun.
Having said all that, I had a grand total of 150 hours in mostly C-150 when I began taxiing my first KR. I did have some problems and messed the plane up a bit. Some of it was the plane (retract gear) and some of it (mostly) was me. So get some training if you can. My opinion and your results will vary. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC -------Original Message------- Is this an aircraft for someone with a number of hours of experience or would you recommend it can be flown with someone with low hours?
