Speaking of canopy, I made one for my engine for break in purposes. By next weekend I should be making airplane noises. Then I need to make a PAINT canopy for the shop. Getting there.

Troy Petteway gave me two hours of KR2 time before my first flight (required by the insurance company), and it was invaluable training. Bill Clapp was willing to do the same, but neither has a KR these days. The KR Gathering is usually a good place to do this, as those who are nearing first flight are accommodated if at all possible. As for dual throttle, I don't think that's a show stopper, even if the throttle is located on the other side of the cockpit. It's a small panel, and the trainee should be able to reach it if needed, and if not, the instructor can handle it. Thanks for bringing this up Victor...

Hey Guys, Life almost got in the way of getting the canopy mounted but I did get it done and it balanced out and fit up pretty dang good. So now That all the top deck stuff is all working I can start finishing everything from front to the back. Joe Horton N357CJ -- next part -- A non-text attachment was scrubbed...

Great idea. I had to get my first KR flight (thanks to Garry Morgan) from the right seat. So I am setting my Kr2ss - 0200. project up the same way with duel controls. But I see no reason for duel throttles. I have just placed mine engine controls in the middle just like any tin can. PHIL. Down under. Sent from my iPhone
