Not
pilots, but have a structural question for a KR2SThanks Tony. The mounting will
have to be outdoors, what can we do to protect the composite, and how long until
the damage starts to go beyond easily reparable in this north Texas climate? We
will do no irreparable damage. -Original Message-From: Tony King via

pilots, but have a structural question for a KR2SIf you came up with a structure
that had the aircraft still sitting onitslanding gear (or with brackets of some
sort attached to the axles)you'dhave to expect it wouldn't do any damage to the
aircraft. Anarrangementthat somehow attached to the upper landing gear mount
pointsprobably wouldwork OK as well, but would be much harder to implement
withoutat leastminor (repairable) damage.You could pote
ntially hang it from
thewing attach fittings and tailwheelas well. There's a gap between the
outerwing panel and the centre section(which may have a gap seal over it) where
acable could be attached. Thefront WAFs are probably pretty close to thecentre
of gravity though, so asandbag somewhere down the back might be a goodidea in
that case.Also keep in mind that the composite construction doesn'tage well if
it'ssituated outdoors.Cheers,TonyOn 7 September 2015at 07:11, inquire via KRnet
