KR> KR Gathering rooms available for reservations
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. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2010 - KR Gathering in Richmond, Ky - I39 There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for Flying has begun.

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.

KR> Engine Update / Roy's Fifth Bearing
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 Mark Jones (N886MJ) Stevens Point, WI E-mail: flyk...@charter.net Web: www.flykr2s.com
