I have been reading what you guys been talking about own designs and airplanes, KR-2s When I was In highschool I had talked to Ken Rand about building a twin engine as I have been always in love with twin engine aircraft, I bought a set of plans from Ken way back in mid 70's and still have them.I think I paid $25 KR-1 then I joined the Army and helped a friend build one then I got the news Ken was killed. I was stationed in Alaska. He kind of inspired me in aviation,I was a crazy teen- ager. I have helped build a couple KRs.I was told that someone had built a twin KR but was unstable don't know if true or not. I have worked on a design to build a twin KR with 1835 vw engines. If not for Ken I would not got in to aviation, the love he had for aviation I can't explain, I only talked to him three times but great talks, I am still hooked on the twin KR idea. I stayed in the Army for eight and half years to learn what I could about aviation I was a mechanic on CH47 Chinook helicopters then worked for Alaska Airlines (sea tac), I worked for Columbia Helicopters and Everts Airfuel ( Cargo express) in Fairbanks Ak, I worked on DC-6s, C46s, and a old Caribue aircraft I love old roundy round engine wasp 2800s and 2000s. Well I have talked enough. My name is Charles L. Brown. you all have a great day. _______________________________________ Search the KRnet Archives at http://www.maddyhome.com/krsrch/index.jsp to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html --------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Orange vous informe que cet e-mail a ete controle par l'anti-virus mail.
