It was a good presentation Mark. Well done. And thanks once again for your contribution to the KR community.

I started out a bit rattled because when Timm transferred control to me, a control panel showed up and obscured the presentation, so I floundered around a minute or two before I finally got it to close. Of course most people probably thought I was hallucinating or something. I should have opened Larry's Amber Bock first and I wouldn't have been as flustered. It's funny though...I was worried about having enough water and that kind of thing, but once I started talking KRs and engines and realized I was going to have to fly through the thing to keep it to an hour, I never thought about water or anything else but how many slides needed to be covered and how little time I had left (I was supposed to keep it to an hour). I've spent the last several nights annotating a hard copy of the presentation for all the comments I wanted to add to each slide, but once I passed the second slide and realized I'd killed 7 minutes on two slides that I thought were "one minute" slides, I stuck to the presentation and put it in high gear....there were almost 60 slides altogether. Unfortunately, that left a lot of the last week's "fine-tuning" comments unsaid! I'll fix that by editing the PowerPoint with smaller text and try to cover everything, then post it on www.krnet.org. I was out riding my bike this morning (yes, at 4AM), and replaying what I said last night, and for some inexplicable reason I said the Corvair was "worth the extra hundred pounds of weight", which is completely insane. If anybody knows the difference in a VW and a Corvair weight, ready for flight, it's me, and it's about 60 pounds. I'll fix that in the "amended" version of the presentation, however, and add that comment to the EAA's comment section for that webinar. That was really dumb of me and a disservice to the Corvair community. The best thing about this presentation is that it'll be on EAA's website for years as a KR "siren" to those who want to fly fast and efficiently, in a unique work of art that they created with their own hands. Let's get back to work on these projects...
