KR1s are a rare sight at the gatherings. I guess you will just have to fly it
to MVN next month.

Ron,
I fly behind an early version GRT efis. I added AP servos after flying off the
40 hours. It makes X country flying so much better being able to relax and
enjoy the view outside. I also fly behind P mags. I have no regrets. My KR
is a heavy pig with an O 235, but I get 140 kts @ 5.5 -6
I agree with Jeff. I was fortunate to have access to a Citabria to get a bunch
of taildragger landings in and learn to stay on my toes while the wheels are
spinning. The KR handles on the ground a lot better than the old high wingers,
so transitioning to the KR was a non issue. Within a few w
Those of us fortunate enough to attend the BBQ at Marion Saturday had a nice
day to enjoy airplanes and conversation. Getting there and going home
presented some challenges, but with some patience, the scud cleared out. We
were given a tour of the Chizek airport still under construction. I
I agree with Mark. I installed a kissing cousin version Echo w/ GRT gps. Easy
install, and the price is favorable. My old efis just does not want to display
the available data. I use Foreflight on my I pad mini and it gives me that
info. It is nice to have weather available when at altitude
The Rotec TBI does not care for ram air either. I had a few situations where
it ran up fine to takeoff power, but sputtered going down the runway. Pulling
the power back say .5 inches MAP worth corrected it. I fly with the filter
access panel off, a nd have no problems. I can cruise with ra
I get to do an annual and avionics upgrade on my dad’s skylane. ADS b, nav,
autopilot, fun stuff. And a new headliner for the 53 yr old 182. Of course
the misses is not all thrilled about a radio stack sitting on the kitchen
table. But wires need snipped and crimped.

That would make for some good root beer conversation. That’s when the truth
comes out😊

So, while you all are flying around, I am repairing the set of wheel pants off
my Dad’s 65 C182 (sanding, glassing, sanding, etc.). I sent the tbi off my KR
back to Rotec to update it and correct its flaws. Too rich at idle and too
lean at full throttle. While down, I plan to add the GRT auto
How does that KR fly with the 62x68 prop? I took the spinner off this past
week end to check the torque on my prop. There wasn’t much torque left since
it was installed it. Obviously new to the wood prop scene. Life goes on. I
am getting better at 3 point landings. A Murphy Rebel, and C140
I have a 62 x 68 Ed Sterba propeller that can be used as a loaner. Heck I
might even sell it. If there is any interest, I will bring it with me to the
Gathering. It has around 36 hrs on it TT.

Sid,
Excuses (reasons) caused me over a month getting my plane in the air. Well,
you know, in the spring it is windy. So easy to blow off for another day.
Now it is stinken hot out; in Oklahoma at least. Monday I topped 8EM off and
went for a 3 hr cruise around NE OK. I eventually made it

All,
I logged .5 hrs yesterday in 738EM. Flys great, I think. I planned on
running another h/speed taxi since some time has passed from previous run.
Well, I just kept the throttle in and pulled back on the stick and off it
went. Typical KR touches required on pitch and roll. Heading out
Type in westach selector in the search box. You will see a 4 cyl add on kit in
the results.
