KR> KR-2 Fuse at the EAA Woodworking Workshop

[Jose Fuentes]

beyond just emailing in support I am sure the project that is picked is
because someone(s) experienced in that model volunteers.

Just a thought

Subject: KR> KR-2 Fuse at the EAA Woodworking Workshop
Hi folks,

     I had a chat yesterday with EAA's Mark Forss.  He is the
gentleman who coordinates the traveling road show that is EAA's
SportAir Workshops.  They came to near-by Columbus, Ohio in late
October.  The timing and proximity could hardly be better so I took in
the composites workshop taught by Mark Forss himself.

     Recently, while looking through KRNet's archives I discovered an
article from the Oct. 1975 Sport Aviation about the woodworking
workshop at Airventure turning out a KR-2 fuse and most of a
horizontal stab by weeks end.  I had been wanting to fire off a note
of thanks to Mark for such a well done effort on the October workshop
when the thought occurred to me that it sure would be nice if a KR-2S
fuse build were the focus of a workshop coming back to a future
Oshkosh Airventure workshop.

     Now many of you are probably well past needing something like
this, but I'm sure some of us would be greatly benefited and that
would be a great way to draw attention to the KR in an audience of
likely builders.

     Mark tells me that there are several woodworking projects being
considered for upcoming Osh workshops and though the KR-2S wasn't one
of them, he'd see that it was "thrown in the hat".

     Mark's email addy is mfo...@eaa.org and I bet it would "ramp up
the momentum" if others among us fired off a note to him supporting
the idea.  Just a thought.

     Thanks,

Rich
