As I continue to research the stock retracts on the KR, I've learned
some things from looking at how Glenda Mcelwee designed her retracts
(even though eventually she went with the Diehl gear). I like her
locking mechanism ideas. I keep hearing about how hard landings can
overload and possibly
Bill Clapp had formed a company to produce an all fiberglass version of the
KR-2. He had exhibited the fuselage at AirVenture two years ago. Don't
know if he got any orders. We made a bet as to who would get their creation
flying first: Bill or me. I could not find Bill at AirVenture 2011.
