Orma, I think this is an interesting subject and of course I would like to hear more about your first flight experence.
How did you find the aircraft to fly as compared to what you had been flying? What steps did you take to your first flight. At 60 hours I would not suspect that you had a lot of high performance time. Maybe you didn't have any high performance time. Your flight time and situation would be more common to the average KR builder who is getting ready to make his first flight verses the high time pilot who has flown a lot of different aircraft before his first KR flight. There are probably a lot of first timers who have not even been able to take a ride in a KR. Of course your KR is a tail dragger as apposed to the very common nose dragger that so many are building today. So a variation of technique and such would be expected. I am always interested in hearing more. Tell us more.
