KR> KR crash reports

Don't know about the turbine KR or Roberts Muse's KR, but I saw Bobby Muse's KR was destroyed in southern California in a fatal crash by the new owner trying to fly it home in ridiculously high winds. Seems to me that Don Betcham's KR ended up upside down somewhere near Rapid City, SD in an acc

KR> Fiberfrax, exhaust heat article

I've seen some net entries lately with the name Fiberfrax on the title and just came across this very good article on exhaust heat that mentions this product and others. I've always been suspicious of wrapping pipes and after reading this it's confirmed that it isn't a good idea. The article is t

KR> fire wall edge

Someone recently asked about the treatment of the firewall edge. This is not my idea ... Pretty sure it came from one of the Tony Benglis books (should be in everyone's library) ?? I did a light tack of spray glue to attach the fiberfax and again a light tack to attach the stainless to the fiber

KR> Elevator safety wire or?

KR> smoke in plane

joe, just curious, what was the source of your smoke? > Date: Fri, 13 May 2016 12:48:59 -0400 Sealing the firewall is the first defense just like smoke alarms are in the buildings you enter everyday (not sprinklers like your led to believe). I had a incident of smoke in the cabin and the situat

KR> smoke in plane

Chris, The whole story is back in the archives from probably March of 2013. The front seal of the BTA 5th bearing blew out (I am still flying the proto type for Dan) and in about 3 min or less I exported all my oil. Joe Horton - Original Message - From: "Chris Prata via KRnet" To: "KR

KR> Crash reports

Larry said, "I've often wondered what happened to several KRs I've seen in the past like Robert Muse's KR , the turbine KR seen at the Perry, Oklahoma KR Gathering in the late 90's, and the retractable gear KR owned by the Gathering host at Perry." Bobby Muse's really nice KR met it's end ove

KR> carbon monoxide poisoning

The "smoke in the plane" thread reminded me of Doug Steen's story. Some of y'all know Doug from the Gatherings and SNF/OSH. He flies the Cirrus and a Tailwind now, but earlier it was a V-tail Bonanza and a Luscombe. He was flying from somewhere like VA down to Deland FL in his Dragonfly (or Qu
