I think I had about 15 hours of tailwind time (mostly in a Champ) when I flew my plane for the first time. I'd have made a pretty good landing if I hadn't cut the throttle all the way back and "dropped it in" from about 5' up. I did about 60 runs up and down a 5000' runway to get the feel of th

I'll put in an opinion for what it is worth. I built my KR2S pretty close to plans and am pretty happy with it. Just the RAF48 airfoils and VW engine. I went flying again this morning with our "Breakfast Club" and I really enjoy flying this great little airplane. When I tell folks I built i

I purchased my KR2/S plans back in about 2004. I was a bit disapointed with the meagre drawings& buid instructions supplied (photos hazy). With no known builders near me down here in NZ, I have been a bit cautious about mods to original plans although I have widened the fuse to 42' (1070mm) e
