Rich, I think your question pretty much answers itself. Even if you don't need the knee room, I'd dump the LORAN. I had a loran in the Tripacer and never used it in the 500 hours I put on the plane. A good handheld GPS and a nice handheld nav / com radio is really all you need in a KR. A transponder / encoder would be nice, or maybe required, depending on where your home base is or where you want to fly in to. Larry Flesner
