Barry,
Good to hear you came out o.k. Did the thought of
using your BR chute ever cross your mind?

Barry;
I'm glad you made it out without injury. I think your cool-headedness
under stress got you through it...congradulations for that!
Unfortunately though, you had damage done to your KR, but I'm sure she
will rise again just like the Phoenix!

Just had another thought on my crash.
The engine did not stop but was still running though I was not able to
maintain height but I was only just loosing height.
I was about 15 miles from the nearest airport, my home airport, and I had
about 2000ft clearance from terrain.
If I had a fuel flow met

Do you know what cause the fuel flow problem?

Good to see you made it back to Earth in one piece.
Just curious to know if you've ever tried to thermal in your KR? What

DO NOT PUT SILICONE anywhere fuel is located.
IT IS NOT FUEL PROOF.
I have seen the results from someone making carby gaskets from silicone, it
