KR> Fwd: KR2 for sale

2016-08-06 Thread Skyflyr001 at aol.com

Hi,

I'm trying to help the family of my late friend and KR2 owner sell his  
airplane.  Due to his health issues he had not flown this aircraft in about  10 
years.  If you'll google KR@ Dumbo you'll find a link to a good article  
about the original build of this airplane.

Here's what i've sent a couple of others who are interested in this  
airplane.  It's a complete airplane but since it hasn't flown in awhile I'd  
consider it a project.

My friend who owned this aircraft passed away and I'm helping them to  sell 

it.  After looking through the very detailed records I can  pass along the  
following information  

KR2 serial number  7616.  Completed Feb, 1, 1991.  Registered as  N90JC 
although  it looks like the registration expired in 2010 after new  
legislation  
required re-registration.

Total time 193.0.  Last flown appears  to be 3-21-1997.

Engine is a 2100 VW and it appears to produce  75hp.

Empty weight is 608#
Max GW is 1100#
Cruise is 155mph  (5000msl  @2850 rpm on 3.6 gph.)

fuel capacity is 13.5 gal with 12.5  useable.

The aircraft was purchased from the builder for $12,500 in  April  1993.  


The airplane has always been hangared.  It is located at KPMU, Panola  
county airport, in Batesville MS.  It's about 50 miles south of Memphis,  TN.  

The family doesn't have a price in mind as they don't really know how to  
value it but they are interested in moving it.  I'm not personally  
knowledgeable about this series of homebuilts but I would guess that somewhere  
around 8-9K would be readily accepted.  Of course after inspecting the  
aircraft 
you can be as aggressive as you'd like in an offer.



I'm sure a reasonable offer will get you a nice KR2  See the  link  below.

KR> Wing Extensions

Hi Steve,

I'm trying to come up with a valuation for a KR2 and I was curious what you 
 paid for your KR.  I really don't have a clue what the going price is for  
an excellent KR2 is.  Any idea?

I'm new to the KR scene, having acquired a stock KR2 a few months back, 
that  about 90% completed. I'm looking to make a few modifications, such as  
increasing the length of the horizontal stabilizer for better pitch control  
and extending the wings to decrease the stall speed, to meet  the Sports 
Pilot requirements.  I've read comments in the  archives about extending the 
wings, but I haven't found any  specific information on the correct way of 
doing this. Since my wings are  already built (RAF48), do I extend both wing 
spars or is it possible  to add additional foam to the existing wing end and 
shape to  form?  Also, how much further do the wings need to be extended? I'd  
be interested in hearing from any of you who know or have done  this.

Dumbo is a KR@ built by David Carroll in Georgia. The serial number is  
7616.

The most current owner has passed away and I now have access to the  
aircraft, logbooks and other records.  I am trying to help the family sell

I'd like to know a valuation for this airplane and to hear from interested  
parties.

Please e-mail me at _Skyflyr001 at aol.com_ (mailto:Skyflyr001 at aol.com)  if 
you can help.
