I feel that I should provide full disclosure in my response to your question. I fly out of a 1200 foot grass strip. I have no problem taking off and landing. I have not flown out of my airfield with my KR2 yet but I have put a lot of thought into the situation and I believe that the KR2 can be

Oscar; I've held a 2nd or 3rd class Medical for 40+ years, and have considered them a terrible waste for the young pilot. I particularly hated the digital palpation of the prostate, which in young men is useless. Now that I am older, I'm convinced that the Medical is a waste of time for the

I wrapped my bd4 crossover pipes with ceramic tape from JC Whitney, to minimize heat conduction inside the cowl. I painted the engine white and the cowl interior black to maximize heat radiation to the cowl. The cowl exterior became noticeably hotter to the touch, so ideally you would use a

I had a company in Denver do their version of ceramic coating on the inside and out side of my exhaust pipes. I have about 100 hours on them now and they have not discolored at all and do seem to help keep the temp down in the cowl. The coating seems very durable. I scrape the pipes pretty hard

Hi, I installed both flaps (20" X 12" inboard) as well as a belly board (clearance 2" hanging 90 degrees down). The idea is to use flaps on approach and use speed brake after touchdown. I will be testing on a 3,000 feet strip, but my personal strip is only 1,200 feet, so want to see if I can

Yes, keep the heat in the pipe. This is good for many reasons. Get your pipes coated inside and out, or do it yourself. I had Jet Hot do mine and I believe that Mark L. does his. It appears keeping the heat in the exhaust flow is the key.

I met a guy at Oshkosh who had an RV 6 with a Lyc 360. He had the piston tops, exhaust ports and exhaust pipes ceramic coated. The cooling air inlets are 2 1/8 diameter and he has no problems with cooling issues. It appears keeping the heat in the exhaust flow is the key. Interesting
