KR> KR Gathering rooms available for reservations

2010-06-04 Thread Dan Heath
Great, got my reservation.  However, I will warn you.  If you want to come
in on Thursday, you will have to make two reservations because Thursday is
outside the block and costs more.  I am going to call in the morning and
speak to the manager to see what I can do about that.

Dana, tell me the name of the other hotel and maybe I can use that for
leverage.  In the past, the hotel with the blocked rooms was glad to get
another night during the week and never even mentioned a different rate for
that night.  I actually had to make two reservations.

I've been waiting to post anything about the block of rooms for this years
gathering as the two competitors were in a bidding war to get the block of
rooms.  While I think I could have got a better rate, $65.00, the time to
make a command decision happened this morning.  The block of rooms is at
Country Inn & Suites by Carlson, 330 Walnut Creek Drive, Berea, KY  40403
859 228-0340 http://www.countryinns.com/bereaky .  Be sure and mention you
are reserving a room for the KR Gathering. This motel is just down the road
from the airport so getting to and from the motel will be a piece of cake. 

The cutoff date for individual pay for each room will be August 10th.  I
will be posting this information on a regular basis.  The block of rooms is
for Friday and Saturday, Sept. 10 & 11.  If you early arrivals want a
Thursday reservation, they will accommodate your request on an individual
basis. 

See everybody here shortly at i39

KR> Engine Update / Roy's Fifth Bearing

2010-06-04 Thread Mark Jones
Ladies and Gents,
   Last evening was a beautiful time to go for a flight here in Wisconsin so I 
took to the air about 6 PM and climbed to 8,500' and played around on top of 
the clouds for an hour and a half. Being on top in a KR rates among the highest 
forms of entertainment in my play book. Being on top of a cloud deck allows you 
to really sense the feeling of your speed since the clouds give you a 
relatively close reference points. I honestly can not think of anything else I 
had rather be doing other than flying in a machine that I built. 

  As most of you know, I had Roy Szarafinski build me a short block with his 
fifth bearing over the winter months. Roy's expertise and dedication to produce 
the highest quality Corvair engine possible for me has proven to be a very 
smart decision on my part. Roy is the type of person who will go the extra mile 
to make sure he has achieved this task for the end user. Last night I crossed 
the 20 flight hour mark on my new engine. I had been fighting a very minor 
misting oil leak but I no longer have that problem. My engine was totally dry 
after the flight last night. I did have to replace the main seal to stop the 
leak. Fortunately, Roy's design of the fifth bearing allows for a very quick 
and easy seal replacement. His fifth bearing is very well designed and really 
adds to the beauty and integrity of a Corvair engine. Many of the pilots at my 
airport have examined Roy's fifth bearing and every one of them commended the 
quality of it's design, not to mention the extra safety it adds to the engine. 
At this point I am totally confident I have an engine that I can rely on. I 
have absolutely no reservations now when I turn that switch and watch her come 
to life. Keep building, you too will be rewarded as I have been. Thank You
