KR> RE :Gathering weather
"I hope the weather Gods do cooperate." I just checked and "Big Chief No Cloud" has done his dance. Through Saturday morning (as far as my site goes out) nothing but sunshine, upper 50's for lows, low 80's for highs, winds out of the NNE less than ten and chance of precipitation 12% or less. I sure hope the guessers are right. Stephen Teate Paradise, Texas

I drove cross country from Scappoose Ore. And arrived this morning in Mt. Vernon for the gathering. I hope the weather Gods do cooperate.

KR> Re: Gathering awards
I contacted EAA about that some time ago, and they told me that a person can win only one award for their plane and once winning that award, cannot win it again in future years. However, I go with whatever Larry says. No way is perfect and you gotta go with what works best for you. Larry has done an AWESOME job over the years. I have always felt a little sad for him, having to do all the work while we were having all the fun. Now, he will get to have some fun too. It is great to see people stepping up to the plate again, to host the Gathering. See N64KR at http://KRBuilder.org - Then click on the pics See you at the 2009 - KR Gathering in Mt. Vernon, Ill There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for Flying has begun. Daniel R. Heath - Lexington, SC -Original Message- EAA has used that methodology for their aircraft judging at fly ins for the last 50-plus years.
KR> Re: Gathering awards
In light of these concerns, and as host of the Gathering, the individual awards this year will be presented to the KR that scored the highest in each individual area and if one KR takes home all the awards, including "people's choice" and "greatest distance flown", then so be it. THEY WERE ALL DESERVED. If the goal of our awards program is to promote ingenuity of design and quality of workmanship, I personally see this as our only option. Larry Flesner -- Larry, Good choice. I can go with that. EAA has used that methodology for their aircraft judging at fly ins for the last 50-plus years. Sid Wood Tri-gear KR-2 N6242 Mechanicsville, MD, USA smw...@md.metrocast.net
KR> RE-Gathering location
Hey everyone I enjoy the krnet very much, the people are friendly and don't care to help people out when they need info on build their airplane. I realize that I am new to this list. I like the ideal that you move the meeting place every 2 years. When you do that people from all over has a chance to see everyones airplanes and talk to them in person. On the other hand I can see having it at the same place, for instance look at sun and fun or Oshgosh there is a lot of people goes them once a year. I would like to see a gethering down here in Florida at the Gilbert Field here in Winter Haven Florida. I am sure that a lot of you know the field because this field is packed when the sun and fun is going on.They also have a eaa chapter over there but I think that they are buliding RV's Thanks for reading my post Bob harley...@earthlink.net
