KR> Plans
John: I ordered plans a little over 2 months ago. They arrived about 3 weeks after I placed my order. I sent a certified check with the order, so that may have sped things along. Be patient, RR will get them to you.

KR> Loop De Loop
Folks: I have a copy of it ... just need to figure out a way to get it to the group. Figure attaching it isn't such a good idea. It shows two pilots doing a steep climb, then abrupt pushover to 0g for a few seconds. Poor dog, but I laugh every time I watch it. Open to suggestions on how to distribute it ...

KR> New Daylight Pics
Fantastic, Dan - a fine looking a/c. Question for you ... in your photos of the canopy construction, you noted that there was some crazing in the Lexan on the frontal portion of the windscreen after a few months. Did you end up replacing that section eventually (and if so, with a different material?) or did you leave it? Your solution with the combination cold-formed Lexan plus the R/R canopy seems like a good approach for increased headroom.

KR> Windshield
Dan: As beautiful as it turned out, I'll heed your guidance. When I get to the point of thinking about a canopy, I'll open up my Heinekens and my checkbook for a pre-made beast. Thanks, and I look forward to seeing your flight report in the coming days. -- Brian Olson Alpharetta, GA -- Original message -- > Brian, > > > > We replaced the Lexan with a new one made of Acrylic ( Plexiglass ) 3/16". > The Lexan that we used should never be used for a windshield and I can go > into all the reasons why, off line, if you like.

KR> The plans have arrived!
Possibly insignificant news to some, but an important step for me - a set of KR2S plans were waiting for me on the kitchen counter when I got home from work this evening. They even had that "new plans" smell! Brian Olson Alpharetta, GA
