There are more KRs around and we should get together occasionally. Rob Schmitt and I should meet up at Kingsley Field near Springfield, MO some time soon. Ken Hurley can join us there. That's a short flight for us. Once Roger Baalman gets his time flown off, he can join us. That's close enough Terry Chizak will likely join in if he's not off to some other end of the country. Maybe we can coax Russ Barnett to fly his 150/150 over to join us as it's really close by for him. Maybe we can even get Stephen Teate to fly up in his hot rod KR once he gets his time flown off. What do you say Rob? I've scoped out the restaurant at Kingsley. The food and setting couldn't be better. We should do a trial run soon.
Mark, Larry and I had a good time yesterday. The FBO at Bolivar, TN was very quiet and very accommodating. Had a nice room where we could sit and talk before we headed off for home. Had a nice car for us to use. Could only have been better if Mike, Robert & Steve Bray
had been able to make it. We did demonstrate a complete inaptitude for ground navigation, but the rural tour was pleasant.

KRnetHeads,
Now that the sucky winter is finally over, the KRs are coming out to see
the world again. Last weekend I met Joe Horton in Lewisburg, West
Virginia, for lunch. We met halfway between his place in Pennsylvania
and mine in Alabama. We sat in the airport restaurant and talked for a
couple of hours, and got to log some KR time too!
This weekend I met up with Jeff Scott and Larry Flesner in Bolivar, in
far western Tennessee, the center spot between Jeff, Larry, me, Mike
Sylvester, and Robert Pesak. Mike would have been there, but was
parking planes at his home airport next to the Taladega race track, and
Robert was busy getting Roger Baalman some KR stick time. We'll do this
again, maybe monthly or so, as it's a quick trip for all of us, and we
can sit around and talk KRs, aviation, and just about anything, with
good friends we've had for decades now. Bolivar had a very
accommodating airport, an awesome courtesy car (pristine "police chief's
car), and a few decent places to eat nearby. Lewisburg had a very nice
airport restaurant right there at the airport, but I'm not entirely
convinced that I didn't get food poisoning from the salad I had there.
Whatever it was, it was good for four days off from work and now missing
from my life (drugs are a wonderful thing), so I'm not complaining!
My point is, the fact that Mike and Robert have recently spread their KR
wings and are all over the skies now, and Jeff is a lot closer in
Arkansas, we are now only an hour or two apart by KR time machine.
Let's get some more KRs in the air, and have more "KR flash mobs"
showing up at local airports all over the country....and the world! You
guys don't know what you're missing! Don't be like so many KR
builders.....just not getting anything done, eventually selling it for
parts....get your butt in gear and do something constructive!
