I did something similar...11,500' at 3300 rpm, at an average of 145 mph. Getting on top really made the trip a breeze, with cool air, blue skies, and a 22 mile glide range. I listened to MVN traffic in the pattern deep into Tennessee, well over 100 miles away. CHT and oil temps were so cool up there I just firewalled it the last half of the trip, and made it under two hours. Although the KR world now knows that my KR is not as nice as they'd thought, and my landing skills are even worse, it sure was nice to avoid that 5 hour car drive! Thanks to Larry and everybody else involved for making it another great KR Gathering. I'll try to get some pictures together for a Gathering website sometime in the next week or two. > by the way, i'm not gettin > kr mail due to a problem called a ( bounce) i'm lost with this? Bounces are described in detail at http://www.krnet.org/info.html . The "confirmation email" that you get from the list even warns that AOL email can be sporadic, if it works at all. The bottom line is that AOL stinks, and if I were stuck using it, I'd use it only to access an email account website that was provided by somebody else! Hotmail is not the most reliable either, as OZ would be quick to testify. Anybody that knows of a free email account that actually works is welcome to post information on it...
