Dustin, don't overestimate the aerodynamic benefits to this. For one thing, the form drag of the fuselage is only a portion of the total drag. You have to consider that the KR2 is already a pretty slick airplane. Induced drag from the wings accounts for a fair bit, and then you have skin

I'm going to throw my 2 cents worth in on this since I had thought about a tandem in my early stages. Besides what Langford has already mentioned you have two other issues to contend with, one) to handle the CG you have to use a wider wing chord, that means more drag and more importantly unknown

Don't know if this is what you are looking for. I was given a couple of pics of it sometime ago and posted them on my site. http://krbuilder.org/KR2T/index.html You might want to consider that you will probably end up with a nice roomy single place plane. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org -

I seem to recall there was a fellow who built a kr2 with a tandem seating arrangement. Does anyone have the link to his website? Also, what do you guys think about this? I personally prefer the tandem seating. I am considering modifyi g my own project in this manner and using a Vari ez canopy

I have never seen a tandem KR and Rand does not sell one. This is a one up design and you will have to do the weight and balance yourself. It is very unlikely that WB will come in the envelope in this configuration. N64KR Daniel R. Heath - Columbia, SC da...@kr-builder.org See you in Red
