Does the word "thief" come to mind? If you want to build a plane that's legaly (sic) considered to be not a KR aircraft", then (a) buy plans for another "legaly. . .not a KR aircraft", (b) design your own based on a balsawood kit, or (c), PAY JANNETTE FOR A SET OF PLANS AND STOP TRYING TO FIND WAYS TO CHISEL HER OUT OF THE COST FOR THE PLANS. The company is her's now, has been for quite a few years, and since ONE set of plans is to build ONE aircraft as stated in the plans package, either build something other than the KR entirely or pay her for her plans. This is not rocket science!

What percentage of deviation form the plans would have to be made in order to have the aircraft legaly considered to be not a KR aircraft. Some of you guys who are lawyers, please coment on this.

That is also your proof number if the FAA wants to check back with RR that you have a legal set of plans. You are authorized to build one KR using that set of plans and no more than one. It's in the copy write laws and it is FAA policy to enforce this. If your FSDO checks on this, may be another matter. The Book Number is the update version. So, if you have a Book No. 82, that is the revision 82 edition. I got this info from personal conversation with Jeannette Rand.

Does anyone >have the correct meaning of the top number. This is only an educated guess, but it is my understanding that RR keeps the name and address of the original plans purchaser (and possibly any known secondary) in notebooks in numerical sequence. Since they are over 10K on the KR-2 / 2S that makes for a lot of books. My basic KR-2 S/N is 9707, "Master File Book No.82". Allen G.
