Chris:
I've always thought that it would be very cool to build a war bird
replica of the Mosquito, using a twin KR-2 as the plan under the skin. What
do you think? We could always use a couple of Corvair engines and get that
part of the KR family involved. Anyway everyone, have a great holidays, and
think of Peace.
Best regards
Jim Sellars
