I think it's a terrible idea! Not only will you ruin the looks of the
airplane (Look what a nosegear did to the Pacer! Turned a graceful

Some older RV'ers eventually go to 3 in the green build option. My brother
is considering a tri-gear after years & many TD's (62yrs old)
Many factor's.Alan Toule serial RV Builder once said in SA mag about
doing same said he had too much cash $$$ in his TD to have it wrecked by a
simple mis
So, so agreed
If you want, get some duel conventional time in a variety of
conventional gear birds :-)

Looks, Speed, money, and adding something else that can break your plane.
The KR has to be the easiest conventional gear airplane that there is to fly
It is so easy that even I can do it.

I have to agree with Joe, it is an opinion. I think the taildragger looks a
little "old timey", and is so low to the ground that it looks small...not
confidence inspiring to those who are afraid of flying (not that I care).
The tri-gear looks like a more substantial airplane because it's up off
Oh, and to have been more thorough in looking at both sides, the taildragger
