Around 1980 I had this KR patch put on my EAA chapter shirt. Photo attached.

Some years ago, I cooked up a KRNet logo that I used to make up some polo 
shirts for the Gathering.  What I did was take the logo from the Rand-Robinson 
promotional literature from an info pack that I got many years ago and did a 
cut-and-paste (literally; scissors and tape) onto a piece of paper with a 
catalog cutout graphic of the earth, then used my French curve and felt-tip 
markers to create the swoosh of a KR leaving the earth and going out into 
cyberspace and filled it in solid.  The KRNet.  I took my artwork to the local 
shirt shop at the mall and they cleaned it up for embroidery after I selected 
the color for the airplane (red!), and the result was also used in some vinyl 
decals that Mark Langford made available from somewhere, somehow.  I still have 
two of those; the envelope that Mark mailed them to me in is postmarked 29 
March of 2004 so I suspect he sent them to me following the 2003 Gathering, 
which was held in Red Oak Iowa that year.  My guess is that that is the year 
that Mark presented a forum on the new AS50xx airfoils at the Gathering, since 
Troy Petteway flew his new wings in 2001 and Dean Selby and Bill Clapp soon 
followed.  Anyway, I still have the R-R promo literature with the KR image on 
it if that might suit for seat upholstery graphics.
