John asked about how far the airplane will have traveled down the runway at different touchdown speeds. The best way to determine that is to find videos of KRs landing on hard-surfaced runways that have standard runway markings. Better yet, see if you can find videos that KR pilots may have po

Depending on the wind, but probably about 500 ft. I am off the runway to the taxiway by 2000 to 2500 ft, no issues. I have neither flaps nor belly board. -Original Message- From: John Bouyea To: robert7721 ; 'KRnet' Sent: Sat, Feb 14, 2015 9:49 am Subject: RE: KR> Touchdown speed

I think it would be a good improvement if there were an auxiliary ring on the prop hub which would allow us to attach a trigger wheel closer to the case. Also, for those who want to go Coil on Plug, the crank trigger wheel can be placed on the prop hub and a cam position sensor built into Bosch 090

I use 80 mph over the numbers, and then flare. I really am not exactly sure the exact landing speed, but it is probably closer to 70, then 60. This is how I was taught by Terry Chezik and it works well. If you run below that speed, the airplane get more unstable and is harder to control. It works w

Rob, This data is very helpful to me, thanks. I see the same thing; especially pitch stability decreasing rapidly with slower indicated airspeed. Question: If you cross the numbers @ 80, what distance passes from the numbers to your touchdown point? John Bouyea/ N5391M/ KR2 OR81/ Hillsboro, OR i
