haven't heard from the police because you didn't break a law. An EMT has
absolutely no authority to confiscate anything - they can remove stuff if it

I would recommend some serious research before purchasing this aircraft.
This plane has been for sale for about three years. I know because I checked
into it in November 2006. I have been told it has more recent "experiences"
too.

Hi Guys,
I was checking out the list of builders and if you have not seen Dennis
Dyer's site, check it out.
Dennis has done the greatest thing on adding a starter and alternator to the
C-65 engine in his KR2. I did a lot of checking once (especially with Harry
Fenton - the Continental guy),
Guys,
Something is not right with N5424N. I corresponded with the builder and the
N number was cancelled - I verified it on the FAA website. It is now in a
Hold-reserve state with Cancelled/Not Assigned. I get nervous myself with
questionable paperwork and it sounds like this nice little bird
I'm pretty familiar with N5424N and the builder in Asheville NC - I went to
purchase it in 2006 and the owner decided not to sell while filling out the
papers. It was a sad day for me - the closest I've gotten to getting a KR2.
My wife and I fit inside nicely too. :(
The airframe was donated
Here's an alternative to making or purchasing expensive strobes. I was
looking at these when I almost became a KR owner two years ago. This
companies carries a lot of neat light (including light-weight and low
profile) options that could be adaptable to aircraft.
I'm considering a KR2 project and want to know if there are any complete 2180s
or close size engine for sale. If I can get a used, good engine, then I might
be able to work out (i.e., afford) a deal on the airframe.
I want a ready to run and mountable engine. Prefer dual ignition but not
Does anyone know a lender who would finance a KR2? I tried with AOPA and they
don't do experimental unless (quote: "there are hundreds around to establish
comps").
What was worse, the loan underwriter didn't know what a KR2 was, but then he
also said he
didn't fly and had never been in a GA
I'm still wondering if there are any older, flying A/W KR2s for sale within
flying distance of NC.
I got a response for a neat sounding project that could be my best option, but
would still like to see if there
is an older, currently flying plane for sale. Functionality is more important
that
Joe,
So sorry to hear about your bad morning. At least you were not airborne - I
once found my canopy
(in a previous Dragonfly) undone on downwind during a test flight after
getting a "little bit of air" too.
Fortunately, it had a safety catch; however, I had to hold it secure with
one hand
Hi all,
After some tough times, I'm back in the market for a KR2 or S. Any flying
birds available?
The alternative available plane now is a Sonerai IIL - but my heart still
belongs to the KR.
Email me offline if you know something.
Thanks,
Ben

Does this mean the 2100 engine on Revmaster's site is actually a 2180cc? I
couldn't find that in their specs.
