I do know what you mean. I built 1 in 1994 and had to sell it in 2000. I test flew a couple of KR's in the area and really missed it. When Les Palmer offered me his I could not refuse. I have been lucky in that I have had a chance to fly a number of different aircraft and the KR is probably about the most fun. The only 1 that comes close is the RV but compared to my KR with the 150 hp Subaru the RV can't stay up when I am wide open.
