It amazes me that an EAA Tech Rep treated you this way. An EAA guy telling
you to buy a certified aircraft! He clearly has some issues of his own he
needs to work out instead of taking it out on other builders! Don't let him

time needed to fly the KR-2 safely. I am currently building my KR-2 and
learning to fly also. I am close to my checkride and upon passing and receiving
my license I intend to start building TD time with the head

I had exactly 170 hours when I bought my taildragger KR2, mostly on
