I don't know if this has been shown on the KRnet or not. I saw this ad
in the 'Classified' section of Kitplanes. Some prospective buyers may
not be members of Kitplanes and won't have access to it so the
advertisement reads:

In addition to Gary's post, I saw few days ago another advertisment on
Barnstormers for a $3k KR-2, I don't know if it is a project or a flying plane:

Hi Joe,
I am interesetd in your Matco wheel. Any idea how much it will cost to ship to
Remsen, NY ?
I will visit next month Jon Coxwell to see his Corvair engine (you may probably
know him from the Corvaircraft maillist), so the tailwheel can be shipped to
his place.
Thank you,

Hey guys,
After thinking a little bit more I see that this can still be real confusing to
anyone reading any of this in the future. Here is what I propose

My KR2S is very close to stock dimensions. I also used the RAF 48 airfoil and

I would add 2 more inches in front of the spar for more leg ro

Hi Gary,
I can only answer for myself but mine was being built to the KR2S plans and it
was only by a mistake when installing the tail post that I ended up with about
1 1/2" extra in the last bay. I would not add more to the fuselage on the
foreword side of the main spar for W&B reasons as I thi
Thanks for all of the input to my question regarding KR2S modifications. I am,
however, a little confused (doesn't take much) about adding length to the KR2S
plans fuselage and could use help with some clarity.
