Ladies and Gentlemen of the KRNET: It is my proud honor to announce that after 3 1/2 years of dedicated construction, my KR-2S with Subaru EJ-22 has taken flight. On two occasions today, N4027Y leapt off of runway 25 at Lompoc, California and climbed like an...overpowered KR-2S. It flies straight and level with the elevator trim in the neutral position and has no adverse roll tendency. At low altitude and an engine rpm of 4,000, (max will be about 5,000), I was indicating 160 mph. I'll keep you all abreast of max climb and max cruise speeds as I cautiously approach the outer limits of the performance envelope.
