KR> Room for fuel tank
I am building a KR2S. There are two shelves which are attached to the upper firewall. My fuel tank rests on the lower shelf and I do not want that. My problem is:: shall I cut off about the aft 2 inches of the shelf, or about 1/2" of the fuel tank? My main concern is structural. Ray Goree Arlington, Texas Ray Goree 817-795-4779

KR> Room for fuel tank
This for Jeff Scott: Since I don't have your E-mail address, I'm answering by way of the net. Thanks for your reply. I agree that it is best to leave the shelves alone. I did some checking today, and I think I can alleviate the problem by adding a spacer under the forward edge of the fuel tank Thanks, Jeff. Ray Goree raybeth...@sbcglobal.net

KR> room
I'm your height and weight and have flown a standard KR-2 (original plans) for 15yr. I wish I had built a KR2S, but at the time I built my KR, the S plans weren't published. (In the newsletters, I'd read about guys building stretch versions, but was unwilling to deviate from the plans) To answer your question based on my experience, sure your knees can clear the panel, but after about 45 min in flight, you'll be wishing for about 4 more inches of leg room so you can stretch your legs out completely. A custom seat cushion can help some to increase your comfort. My $0.02, your results may vary.

Hi James I am 6'2" and fit in my KR2, as I cut the panel higher at my legs. However my legs are only 32" long, so my main problem is headroom. Al Hawkins KR2 C-GDPU Port Coquitlam, B.C.

KR>Room share
Ray, the KR net archives are there if you need to look up something.Lynn Several days ago, someone put a note on the Krnet that he had extra space in the room (or rooms) Do you still have space available? ( I must have accidentaly erased my copy.) Contact me by Email at goreebeth...@aol.com. Ray___ I have reserved a room with two double beds. Would be glad to share expenseswith someone.Jack Cooper mailto:kr2coo...@msn.com;>mailto:kr2coo...@msn.comhttp://www.jackandsandycooper.com/kr2;>http://www.jackandsandycooper.com/kr2 Fayetteville, NC.
