Hey guys,
After thinking a little bit more I see that this can still be real confusing to
anyone reading any of this in the future. Here is what I propose....
Anyone that can (flying plane or not) take a measurement from the front side of
the main spar to the back side of the fire wall plywood and take a second
measurement from the front side of the main spar to the point that the tape
measure touches at the tail-post intersection at the rear floor position of the
fuselage. Basically a center-line of the plane profile. This will give a full
length as well as a break down foreword and aft of the main spar for multiple
planes. It is also a location that should be accessible for almost every KR
built.
I guess it would help if with the dimensions I could know if it is a KR2, KR2
modified, KR2S, KR2S modified
?E-mail them to me privately at n357cj at ptd.net and I will make a chart up
showing all the dimensions relative to each other and assign them to a N number
for future references. Pretty sure Mark L. would link it to KR net for us.
?? ?The end result of this exercise I would hope to have real factual
dimensions instead of the subjective add this to that or the other and it flies
great. I also am still believing that we are all pretty close together with
only a few out-layers in the statistics.
I'll do both of mine tonight
Thanks for the help.

PS. Chris Gardener I had no idea that yours was built longer, I've always loved
your plane
