Mark, I've done some stuff with X-Planes.
I created a fairly plane version one of my KR2S. I posted it on my web site at _www.robert7721.com_ (http://www.robert7721.com) today for anyone who wants to download it. I've got the performance pretty close to what my plane can really do. Yes there are others in the KR world who have put together much better versions with paint schemes etc. One of these days I'll get my KR2S version painted and such, but for now it is still fun to fly. Not as good as the real thing of course, but when the weather has been bad this winter, it was better than nothing.

With it's blade element modeling and inertial modeling, it has been used in many aircraft development efforts. While I haven't yet modeled a KR, I have done other planes and it is a fairly good representative sim. I know that some large scale operations such as Sino Swerringen <sp?> have used it. I know a couple of the flight test engineers from there and know first hand. I've modeled a couple of planes a bit larger than the KR2 and have been planning to do one for the KR. My ultimate goal is a true 200 TAS cruise airplane for two. Having said that, most of the designs I've been doing have needed 160-200Hp to realistcally achieve this. MArk
