Hi Ron, If you have the skills to make custom covers for KR Aircraft and want to make some extra bucks I believe there is a market. Every airport I have been to or know about in my area has a waiting list for hanger space. The KR was never designed to be left outside in the weather and removing and replacing the wings to trailer back and forth to and from the airport is not practical. The alternitive is a cover that covers the aircraft completly and I think you could make these and sell them. I hope some of you guys will chime in on this one and prove that I am correct when I say, "There is a market"
