My KR has no scoop on top and when taxiing, I can see nothing over the top of the cowling except sky. But, I don't recommend the scoop either.
See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2007 - KR Gathering There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for Flying has begun. Daniel R. Heath - Lexington, SC -------Original Message------- My Original engine setup had an air scoop on top and I would not recommend it. The KR2 has limited vision over the top of the cowlling and the air scoop makes it much worse, when taxiing I could see nothing in front with the air scoop.
