I bought part # AR111-CW9W-30 from SuperbirghtLEDs.com. This is a drop in replacement for GE-4509 100W landing lights I used in my KR and SuperCub. Both planes had the landing lights mounted with this kit from Aircraft Spruce: 11-08000 LEADING EDGE LANDING LIGHT KIT. Just removed the 100W

The KR is not "stable enough" for IFR? Only useful enough for "fun flying"? Unsuitable for long-distance travelling and can't carry a heavy load? What a bunch of hooey. What Dan said is certainly true . . . if you aren't comfortable on instruments you can't really count on getting where

Trevor; You sound just like me when I was starting out. High performance planes, vacuum systems, IFR...do all those things, but remember, each is a distraction and delay from flying your KR! Use a 172 for your early IFR cross-country, then a B33. The KR is not a stable enough platform and

Yes, the KR is a really nice cross country aircraft. However, like many GA aircraft, and more importantly, like most GA pilots, if you and it are not IFR rated and current, you will most likely be having big trouble depending on it for travel on a schedule. IFR is the key to being able to get to
