Just to let you know;my steel tube take off from a KR2S is a work in progress I've invested years of thinking and research into this and have a completed fuselage my wing spar set comes from a stripped KR2 and I've foamed and glassed my outer wing panels and built a tail and am getting ready to mate my center section spar sets to my fuselage then the tail and should have it on it's gear shortly and have an 0 235 Lycoming that I'm using for power .I've already built a KR1 and think that qualifies me as a KR person and have been for about 30 years now. Ken Rand was an innovator of the highest order and the KR's were born in idea's from previous designs and I think if he were alive today he wouldn't have a problem with what I'm doing as his idea is what has sparked me to instill my individualism into what I've learned by persuing my airplane education. If you want to be a blind devotee to someone elses cause don't let me stand in your way and everyone else that I'm being a bad influence on I'm sorry but I started as a juvenile delinquent.
airplane forum, not a place to design and build an entirely new airplane. There KR are builders all over the world who monitor this list to learn how to build KR and you are doing nothing but wasting their time. When I pay my voluntary yearly dues (did you?) for the KR Net, I expect to hear KR related issues. I think the problem here is that some of you guys are simply dreamers and not true KR fanatics like the rest of us. You either LOVE THE KR or don't. If you don't, then move on to another plane and stop wasting your time trying to re-invent the KR. You and I both know that most of these foolish ideas you propose will never ever be implemented in the KR. I am not trying to be a smart ass here, but let's get this list focused back where it is meant to be and that is on the KR airplane as Ken Rand and Stuart Robinson meant for it to be, simple and cost effective.
