In going thru the older messages in the archives and looking at the different members websites on the construction of their respective aircraft- I must say that I am impressed. One of the things that impresses me most is that, in general- everyone seems to not only show their successes, but also the ideas that didn't work! That I am glad to see. I have been on several other homebuilt lists and this is generally NOT the case. It makes me glad to have settled on the KR2S!I am still working on my build strategy for this fine airplane and taking notes on what I want to do, and more importantly what NOT to do.
Armed with the information from this list and the Corvair engine list, I feel that I will be able to build my project much easier and better than I would have imagined. I'll try to pay back the list members with my own website and well documented build information when I get started. In the meantime, please keep sharing and updating your respective websites and keep the flow of information going. I'm sure that not only me, but all of the newer builders appreciate more than you will ever know. In my time I have built a LOT of industrial control panels and I'll be applying much of that knowledge to the wiring of my plane and in doing so maybe I will introduce a few "new" things to the list. Technology has come a long way in the past few years and much of that will help "update" the wiring systems and reliability- though I will stay away from computer controls and PLC's :) Fuses and circuit breakers will be different from any I have seen in a homebuilt so far though. Anyway- THANKS FOR ALL THE GREAT INFORMATION that you are willing to take the time to share and help others with! I'll try hard to live up to the standards that you have set so far. Thanks again- (and sorry for being so long winded) Barrett Flowers Salt Lake City, UT
