Hi Bill It was Colin Hales. His was an unmodified KR2 with a Jab 2200. His and also Ken Atkinson's G-BVIA (with a Hapi engine) were only cleared for 950lbs odd MAUW because of the tendancy to get close to the aft limit on the cofg range when fully loaded. This, in practice, limits them to single seaters in the UK. So our mod of adding 6" to the front and moving the pilots forward as well was supposed to address that, and in fact we have been provisionally allowed 1100lbs pending flight testing. All may change with the 3300!
Peter Does Colin, and I can't remember his second name. have the 6 inch extension in the KR2 he flew to Australia and then around GB?
