That was due to the other aircraft he was traveling with. I would think that most KRs would have a comfortable 350 mile range, even without aux tanks. Your can get 12.5 gallon in each outer wing panel with a tank that extends just 10 inches rear of the spar and runs the entire length of the wing panel. That keeps the fuel very close to the CG and with burn off the CG moves forward. Not a bad deal at all. How about a couple of aluminum tube tanks behind the spar and a smaller one on the front side? The options are numerous. Larry Flesner
