Thanks for your helpful thoughts and ideas.
You have helped me find some options to explore both medical and
aircraft related.
Todd.
I may just have to face the facts and sell my KR-2S kit and move toward
Sport Pilot. I am, here, just thinking 'out loud,' and eliciting ideas
and / or offers.
My medical was not denied; but the ME says that it cannot be approved
and suggested that we not submit it until I get a, for most, mino
on the list or via direct email.
Thanks,

You should check the back issues of the print KRNewsletter about 0200
weights, because you can save a good bit of weight by picking your
accessories well. Don Reid's article had very good and detailed
comparisons. He even gave sources for the weight saving components.

Dear Mark,
Thank you for your work securing some past due recognition for the KR
line of airplanes. These great little planes seldom get their due.

PS: My KR will be about eight or nine hands at the canopy.

Hello Gavin,
I prefer to mask around the joints with low adhesion and residue tape,
and this way simply avoid the glue clean up mess. If you do not prevent
the excess glue mess, none of the cleaning methods are any fun.

5) Any flight time that I can beg or barter in any homebuilt. ---Continuing.
6) Since I have not stayed current, refresher time in 2-5 above in the
weeks preceding the first time my KR moves under its own power. ---Lots
of time left for this.

One thing to keep in mind is that stresses on the weight attachments can
be rather high. If I recall correctly Barnaby Wainfan in one of his
articles said that control surface weight systems should be designed for
a 40 g minimum.

Hello Jim,
Spruce has both a standard and a "Super KR" canopy listed on page 176 of
their current catalog, but not listed in the KR's own section.
Hope this helps.

On the aerobatic testing of your KR: DETAILS PLEASE!

is that the exposure will help keep these great little planes alive as a
viable alternative to newer designs. The KR series does not get the
credit or consideration that it deserves and part of the cause is the
limited exposure at these events.
