Well Mark, Too busy flying to do much building. I now have 140 hours on the
KR2.
What a fantastic little plane. I love it.
As for my KR2ss, I got a Zenith tinted Canopy, I think will cut down nicely,

After the spot lifter, I would use trichloroethane - the old school
brake cleaner. Really hose it down. It will degrease anything. Allow it
to fully dry out before gluing.

Hey Jeff.
I was checking out the archived updates on Jeanette Rand's web site and

I slapped together a quick web page that shows the old and new exhaust
systems on my KR. < http://www.losalamos.com/jscott/KR/exhaust.html> If
anyone is interested, the old exhaust system will likely be for sale
(including heat exchangers) at a very reasonable price after I've put a
little time o
Beautiful workmanship Robert.
You have turned KR building into an art form.
How did you work out the correct angles for your bellcrank arms?
All the best.

Anybody making progress on a KR lately?
After many months of home repair work, I sprayed my wings in the back yard
and am getting ready to spray my fuselage in the garage.
I appreciate all the good information from all the dedicated people on the KR
