Thanks Mark for your comments on my KR. I'm 6' 4" and my KR is quite comfortable, especially in head room. Knee room is a bit tight but comfortable but my KR has standard spar to firewall dimensions and I think the 2s adds about 2 inches in that area. Additionally, my rudder pedals are moved back an inch or two to accommodate my brake setup. When I started my KR I weighted in at about 180 pounds. If I were starting to build at 230 pounds and 6' 4", I'd strongly consider building a KR2s as a single place with a single place fuselage. Steve at NvAero has been busy at the Gathering and returning home. I'm sure you'll hear from him soon. I got a ride and a bit of stick time in an RV7 that took me back to Mt.Vernon to pick up my KR. Can't say I was impressed with the springy gear and slack in the tailwheel cables. It handled on the ground like a 1957 Cessna 182 jump plane with 5 people on board. Lots of "rock and roll" and lots of dancing on the rudders. Very KR like in the air. I really do love my KR. What an awesome flying machine. Larry Flesner
