Sid,
I hope so. I did spend much of Monday by the plane answering questions to curious folk. I was "almost" an Oshkosh airshow performer on Weds. I was invited to fly in the "Homebuilt Review" on Weds afternoon. There were about 17 home builts in total. We taxied down to 36L to stage for the fly-bys, but we were cancelled at the last minute due to high gusting cross winds (20 knots). So we all paraded back the taxi way to our parking spots. Oh-well. Much thanks to Larry Howell and his wife for some really great burgers and beer at Camp Scholar Sunday night. I departed on Thursday. Great time as usual at Oshkosh.

To the un-initiated, if you don't think this is a big country, try driving across it for a few days. I did manage to get to the KR Forum on Monday morning; had to leave early to get to my station at the Composites 101 Workshop. I also did the presentation several times for the Workshop. I have heard it many times and am a believer: If you want to really learn a topic, try teaching it. During the week I visited Rob Schmidt's KR a few times. Each visit I would have to explain how the KR is constructed to other prospective builders who were checking out the KR. After three visits, two buddies from Texas said they had decided to build two identical KR-2S aircraft side by side. When finished they would then flip a coin to determine who would own which aircraft. Rob, I am sure that your KR has inspired several more builders beyond these two buddies.
