Kris, the Q200 and the KR2 have vastly different firewalls but it is not outside the realm of possibility for a reasonably competent builder to adapt one to the other. Having recently done something similar it shouldn't bee too hard as the KR has 3 straight sides to match to the curvy Q200 cowl.

Heya all. I'm Dave's son. The KR-2 is a project we're doing together. So let's see if I can fill in any holes here (no pun intended). We're actually redoing the panel from the current ½" wood panel that's in there to aircraft grade aluminum with carbon fiber overlay. All the instruments actu

How about lamenting your existing panel to add 1 1/2" to it without actually moving it.  The only down side is you have move all your existing instrument to the new panel surface. Just my 2-cents Noel B. --- On Wed, 3/17/10, Dan Heath wrote: From: Dan Heath Subject: RE: KR> Header Tank Rewo

Hey Paul, Here is a great KR-1 simulator that works well with Microsoft Flight Sim 2004. It is not a KR-2S, however the flight characteristics should be similar and it is still just a simulator. http://www.compilots.com/downloads/details.php?image_id=646 Kris Leirfallom CFI KR-2 Builder Quoti

If you have a POSA, junk it and get something else. Richard is a master machinist and has the ability to make the carb safe. Others have just been lucky or have the ability to make the repairs or adjustments needed. Not everyone has that aptitude and need something that can be put on and run wit

Hello Dennis, To start I would not go any smaller than an 1835 VW. It would be about 60-65HP @ 3300 rpm. I don't think you can get a VW up to or over 100hp without doing something crazy to it. Dan Deihl ran a Turbo for awhile, but he said that you have to fly high and in cool air all of th

There is nothing wrong with the POSA. Most of the stories you will read or hear on this net are that STORIES. There are several people who fly with POSA's. Steve Bennett has a plane right now that is Jim Faughn's, and it flys with a posa. I had an 1835 with a POSA and it worked great. I cr
