KR> Hiney placement KR2 - Single

2010-01-19 Thread Richard Collins
I originally flew my KR2 from the left, but, because of my height, I got a stiff neck from holding my head at an angle.  I then started flying from the center.  The only difference I noticed was that I just had to get used to what it looked like to fly from the center.  However, there was no

We bought a second home in Arizona.  I have thought about moving the AVID to AZ via trailer.  I have also thought about flying it until I approach more hostile terrain, then trailer it through the mountain ranges, hoping to avoid bouncing it around as much as possible.  But either way,  I am

Chuck, I am interested in your KR-2 if it is a flying KR-2. I am not concerned about the interior and the headroom. I am large myself, but I will convert it into a KR 1.5. Do you have good records for it. Is it registered with FAA? Here is my situation. I cannot get to Houston until

Dan, I'm back on the net. After Annie passed away I adopted one of my step-grandsons and remarried. It has been a long and difficult time. However, I do have an A who is going to help restore N886KR. I know it will take a while, but he is so very good. I hope all is well. Judging

Ron, I am, as you, interested in the sport pilot concept, mainly because I am aging and anticipate that I will not always be able to pass the physical. So, after this one runs out, I am going to forego anymore flight physicals. I am curious about how you came to the conclusion that the Hershey

KR>Elevator trim

I used to practice this technique in my Taylorcraft when I would get bored and could think of nothing else to do except "what ifs". I found I could use the elevator trim quite successfully to raise and lower the pitch. I also used to doors to substitute for rudder. I often would get the T-craft

Dear friends on the KRnet, I am so fed up with all of the media hype on what might happen if someone turns a private airplane into a bomb. Today's news brought us no additional relief when NBC showed a "turn and bank by turn and bank" account of a pilot from PA who decided to break airspace

I have heated my T-88 in the microwave. It only takes a few seconds. I would use a burst of more than twenty seconds at a time, but the crystallization will disappear. Rick Collins and the "Little Beast" - Original Message - From: "Tim Brown" To: "KR Net"
