Jim,
For selfish reasons, I hope you do decide to build a KR. That video is captivating and an inspiration to go out and fly. The music selections set the tone and mood for when flying was an amazement for almost everyone. While this is not KR related, it should inspire every builder to stop watching the video and get out to the shop or hangar and get on with building. Put it on your Ipad or whatever and play it in your shop while you are sanding away. I played it in full screen on my 21" monitor and the quality is great. You could be the next Video Bob, which would be great for the KR Community. I really hope to meet you in McMinnville.

Budget is very tight, but safe and a reasonably quick and reliable cross-country vehicle is desired. As for the 2015 Gathering, there's a little, but getting better, known destination at Hood River, OR; Ken Jenstedt Airfield. It has, IMHO, one of the best museums of the history of planes, cars, and motorcycles. They're not polished museum pieces (well, some are), but regular looking vehicles. And the planes fly, and the cars and motorcycles drive. (Every month 2nd Tues) It's about 100 wheel miles and 85 propeller miles from McMinnville. AND, they have a Fly-In the weekend AFTER Labor Day. The museum and fly-in started about 8 yrs ago, with 50 planes flying in. This year there were over 300. But it's not the quantity, it's the quality. While my C-172 and your KR's will fit right in, the focus is in Antique - as it's the WAAAM. The Western Antique Airplane and Automobile Museum. Oh, and as for registration fees for the fly-in - they're very high .. $5. That gets you aircraft parking, camping, showers, toilets, and admission to the museum for the 3 days. And that's per plane, not per person. Food is reasonable $ and available each meal of the weekend. Did I say their planes fly and their rolling vehicles roll? I mean virtually all you see. Even the 1910 Curtiss-Parker Pusher. It flew this Fly-In, had an engine failure - and well, you'll have to watch my video... No, the engine didn't re-start. This is a preliminary copy. It's much too long at 44 minutes, the sound is too high, and there's several more changes I want to make. (Suggestions invited.) So settle down with a libation and watch, or just watch 10 min of it, or ??? It seemed appropriate to post now as the discussion was options for more attractions around the 2015 Gathering. It's not public yet as I'm still working on the final version. And I'm not a pro videographer. Just a "serious amateur" trying to make and share travelogue's of my adventures. So some is shaky as much is handheld.
