Hi Marc. I'll be glad to create & publish a 2014 Gathering Photos page. Can you pass them on to me?

http://bouyea.net/KRGathering/index.html That was sure a great picture. I can't recall who it was that went through the trouble of getting us all set up for that photo but thank you again, whoever you are, for having such skill and patience. Also see Marc Baca's excellent collage at: https://vimeo.com/50812971 That 2012 Mt. Vernon Gathering was perhaps the last one where we had what's left of the early KR movers and shakers. Dan Diehl, Jeannette, Steve & Linda Bennett, Ken Cottle, Glover, Jim Faughn, Dan Heath, Mark Jones. I know I'm leaving out a few names of the early KR people who attended that Gathering but my memory isn't serving me well. I think Tommy Waymack was there along with Virgil Salisbury and others. In that picture Ken Cottle is standing second row to the right next to the KR-1? he built that has served me so well. This KR incidentally is the one used in Dan Diehl's wing skin installation video. It was Dan in fact that bestowed upon it the designation of "KR-1?". I think that was the last of the truly great KR Gatherings simply because some of those who attended that one won't be attending any more. It's been miserably hot and humid in SoCal since I got back from Oregon and except for a quick 45 minute trip to Big Bear a few days ago I've just been hanging out in front of the fans reading old KR newsletters. It might surprise some to know that Dan Heath and Mark Jones have been building KR's since 1990 or before. Jones has built at least two and Dan two, maybe three? I was also amazed to find Russ Barnett's little jewel of a KR that took top honors in 2012 . . . amazed to find a picture of it in a newsletter from the early 90's! Eh? Russ brought that KR in on a trailer to the 40th Anniversery Gathering in 2012 and I thought it was a new build. It was the most meticulously perfect-in-every-detail KR I'd ever seen - something to be featured behind glass at Cartier or Abacrombie & Fitch. I'm wondering now if it's ever flown. It's been around a lot longer that I thought, that's for sure. We can sure learn a lot from the old newsletters. There's a newsletter dated 1991 with an article by Jerry Price who, with one of his pilot sons Ian, attended McMinnville. We did a prop balance on his Stinson 108. The history in these newsletters is priceless, as is the KRNET archive with its truly excellent search function.

I took quite a few pictures...so many that it will take a while to sort them out and turn them into a web page, but I'll try to get that done in the next few days. As for awards, they were mostly split between Jeff Scott and Kim Niebauer, although there are definitely some honorable mentions, such as Roger Bulla's newly minted plane. They were all very close in terms of quality. I also got air-to-air shots of all the KRs visiting (except for Mike's...he was not around for that), and we owe John Bouyea for that photo opportunity. It was a well-done Gathering. Many thanks to Dan and John for pulling off a great Gathering. I haven't done anything regarding the Gathering photos because we've been riding around Oregon and Washington national parks for the last week, ending up with Mt St. Helens "national monument" yesterday. That was quite interesting. It had recovered amazingly well from the photos I remember from the news way back in 1980...just gray moonscape with zillions of tree trunks laid out like match sticks...all pointing away from the blast zone. It looks a lot better now, and it's good to see how nature manages to recover from that kind of event. More on that (much later) when I do a web page on that vacation...

KR> New old KR Gathering photos
KRnuts, For the few of you that are old enough to remember the last century, I made a discovery this weekend while searching through the basement for old photographs. A while back someone had asked about Don Beachum's retract system. I knew that I had taken some shots of his plane at a KR Gathering in a previous century. Over the holiday break I got the machine from my dad to convert film to digital images and went hunting for the photos of Don's plane. I haven't found those photos yet but I did run across photos from the 1986 Tulsa, OK KR Gathering, the 1988 and 1989 Covington TN KR Gatherings, the 1990 Rough River State Park KY KR Gathering, and the 2001 Pine Bluff AK KR Gatherings. These photos have been uploaded to krgathering.org. They have been added to the links at the bottom of the home page. You can scroll down to the bottom to find them. You will see that there is a note asterisked (*) to these links stating: "Photo quality for these Gatherings (1986 through 2001) are not too good. I found the photos in a box in the basement in 2010 and converted them to digital images from the original film. It might be good enough to jog the memory of some of us old timers about Gatherings gone by."

KR> KR Gathering Photos / KR's in Western PA
Hello KR-Netters, I have been quiet over the last many months, mostly due to job and location change. I recently moved from Rhode Island to Western Pennsylvania, Beaver Falls to be precise. I now saw on the worldmap Glenda took a photograph off, that there is a pin right smack in the middle of Pittsburgh. I'd be interested to learn who is in the area, to get some more ideas what to look for before I finally get started on mine. Nice to hear that everybody had a lot of fun at the gathering; now that I moved half way there I hope that I can make it next year.

KRNetHeads, OK, I'm a little late with these, but my Gathering photos are at http://www.krnet.org/mvn2004/ . You'll be happy to know that I only published about a fifth of the 700 that I took! And if you think the quality of the photos isn't so great, it's because they are reduced and compressed by an average factor of 120x, so the slow modem guys won't choke on them. It was a great Gathering, and I'm really looking forward to next year's event, when several more of us "next generation" KR flyers will be flying in...

Hi All, this is my first posting. Looked like a nice gathering of people 'n aircraft. Shame it all happened over 5000 miles away. I am in the UK, over in East Anglia, almost as far away from the US as you can get in England. Question:- Are there any/many KR2S builders in the UK, as I am looking into this as a possible project. The problem seems to be (apart from the restraints of the CAA/PFA) that all material has to be sourced from the States. This means that timber for example cost almost as much for shipping/delivery as it does to buy. Anyway, good luck to all you existing builders, and may the space between your bum and the ground never reduce faster than you intend Terry Jones > >
Réf. : Re: KR> Gathering photos, finally...
Hi, Terry! There are a couple KR2 builders in the UK. One of them surprised us all when he launched in a world tour with his KR. Went all the way to Australia, despite an awful lack of preparation. You don't have to import everything from the States, far from it. Here in France, I know one guy who built everything from scratch, except for the canopy, using only locally available supplies. As far as timber is concerned, I am fairly sure there are sources of aircraft grade timber near you, since a lot of wooden aircraft are being built in the UK. Just contact the PFA and ask a few builders / rebuilders what kind of wood they use, and where they buy it. My 2 cents worth.

KR> Gathering Photos
Thanks for the feedback Pat. I'm glad you all can view the photos. A few comments; * I organized the photos. If I got anything miss identified, let me know directly please. * Steve Bennett told me even with the Ellison on TOP of his engine, it runs fine up to 2100 - 2200 RPM just on "gravity" feed. He said the air flow through the Ellison causes sufficient draw for the fuel. The engine stumbles (too lean) if the engine turns faster without the normally available fuel pump pressure. * Steve has 2 air boxes in his configuration; the carb heat box and the mandated Ellison plenum. It is fed by a simple scoop on top of his cowl. * I am amazed at how many people are running straight ram air into their carb/ injector/ throttle body intakes! I fly off a grass strip so I'm glad I got all those photos of engine installations. * I was taken by the Jabirus engine's appearance. I was blown away by Ken Thomas's climb rate! He's a BIG guy (I'm just a 188# 6'2" pipsqueak next to him!) * It was great to see the difference in the multiple styles of canopies. It really made it easy for me to appreciate the variety available. Boy, I can't wait for Mark to get his pictures posted!

Always knew that the KR is limited only ones imagination. Need to know why we never see fuel injected VW's. And to Steve Bennett,..love that top mounted carb. I have a stretched KR2 narrowed down to single seat with a crappy homemade canopy and would like to know where Steve got his canopy. His plane looks like a narrow KR2 also

OK, I threw some Gathering photos out there, at http://home.hiwaay.net/~langford/redoak2003/ . Not much commentary, but the pictures say a lot. I'll throw some of the better air-to-air shots out there later as screen savers. The Gathering was a blast, and my hat's off to Terri and Mike Garbez, and Linda and Steve Bennett. Thanks a bunch!

I just posted some gathering pictures to my website. This year I paid special attention to canopies, turtle decks, vents and other things I will be building in the near future so that is what most of my pictures are of. I had a great time at the gathering. Wish more of you had been there.Bob, Great job on the 2002 gathering video. Thats motivation. Thanks.
