Joe, Assuming you have already checked brake pad condition, check to ensure the caliper is floating free on the torque pins. If all is well there, drain and replace the 5606 hydraulic fluid. I have worked on 1 plane that needed to have the hydraulic changed in the brakes every 10 years or so.

KR> major change or minor change

Any change in hp or even engine model designation is considered to be a major change in the eyes of the FAA. One of my phase 1, 5 hr test periods was for a change from a C-85 to an O-200, a virtually identical engine. In your case, the testing was completed already with an O -235-C, so it shou

In the US, we are allowed to set the gross weight to whatever we choose. I chose 1200# gross for my KR. I fully tested and have routinely flown it at that weight for well over 1000 hours now. That's only anecdotal data and not engineering data, but demonstrates that the airframe is capable of
