I have about 75hrs in an AA1b and I agree it's close enough to give you what you need. The only thing missing is the PIO issue. Never heard of that being a problem in the Yankee so I think the KR is more sensitive in that respect. I worry about stuffing 2 std pilots in a KR. I mean 2021 std weight pilots. I am well north of 170 and only have 100lbs of useful load left with me and full fuel.
