I am
not just saying that because my plane is on the cover. Unfortunately, I did
not have a KR in good enough shape to be worthy of the calandar, but I
promise to have one next year.

My KR had problems with plugs fouling from an excessive rich mixture at mid
range power settings. I didn't find the problem until I installed an oxygen
sensor and mixture meter.

Great to hear. You may not realize it, but you have just publicly announced
that you will fly to Sun N Fun this year. We will not accept any excuses!

Steve Jones had a problem with nose wheel shimmy in flight. Several RV
pilots have had the same problem. Do you have wheel pants on the nose
wheel?

Work up the weight slowly and keep an eye on where your C.G. is. If you put
in too much at one time you might find a very different handling plane.

seat cushion and we have several others that are not flat, but they have
handles sewed in so they are easy to secure.
