Can a completed KR2 be kept outside with covers, or does it have to be kept in a hangar? What happens if the wood gets wet? What do you do when going to OSH or traveling? Thanks, -Dj

taildragger is not the most friendly to learn in. I would need to get a taildragger endorsement in order to fly the KR-2 (both for insurance and FAA). What aircraft would you recommend using to get the taildragger endorsement, and where I find a school with one (I'm located in Maine)? Thanks, -Dj --

u want a finished KR, buy one already built and flying, or find a certified airplane like a Mooney/Cirrus that is relatively fast. Glasairs and Van's RVs are also good choices. Plenty of all of the above on Ebay, Barnstormers, Trade-A-Plane, etc. -Dj -- Dj Merrill - N1JOV Sportsman 2+2 Builder #7118
