KR> KR2 world tour.
He flew from UK to Australia a couple of years ago...With his girlfriend ! His engine was a Jabiru I think.-had problems in Singapore but fixed it and carried on. Amazing bloke -met him 30 years ago when I was building mine -got his name in my build diary so he must've made an impression.

I met Colin at the KR Gathering in September, but really didn't get a chance to talk to him. I ran in to Colin again at the CopperState EAA Fly In near Phoenix again in October where we got a chance to chat a bit and I got to see Colin's presentation. As of then, I believe Colin was planning to attend Sun 'N Fun, then travel North up the East Coast, then across the Northern States before flying to Alaska, then ultimately across the northern Pacific from the Aleutians, to Russia, Japan, and China before winging his way back across Europe. I believe Colin said he had a speaking engagement in China for some time this summer, so I would expect him to be leaving the lower 48 and be on his way to Alaska about now or very shortly. -Jeff Scott Los Alamos, NM > > Did anyone on the list meet Colin Hales -who flew from UK to Oshkosh? > He previously flew from UK to Australia-in the same KR2 > I met him briefly in '85 when I was building my standard KR2.G-BVZJ > He has an online diary at"kr2worldtour"which is well worth a > read.-Especially his encounter with a fake rotor arm which came from a > "reliable"source but failed after 5 hours.There was an official warning > about them , but not seen by Colin until after the event! > Just thinking about Mark's experience.. > > Mac

Did anyone on the list meet Colin Hales -who flew from UK to Oshkosh? He previously flew from UK to Australia-in the same KR2 I met him briefly in '85 when I was building my standard KR2.G-BVZJ He has an online diary at"kr2worldtour"which is well worth a read.-Especially his encounter with a fake rotor arm which came from a "reliable"source but failed after 5 hours.There was an official warning about them , but not seen by Colin until after the event! Just thinking about Mark's experience.. Mac
