Mark, Sometimes you just can't get at the computer for a couple of days Thus causing your mailbox gets filled up with SPAM. Then the email that you want to read to stops. Case in point: I had 353 junk emails and only 2 regular Inbox emails. The SPAM caused me to go over my storage limit. I couldn't get to my eMail till Tuesday, for a total of 5 days. Fortunately, both of the regular Inbox emails were which to resubscribe to the lists. Whew! I'm for turning off or revising that feature. ===== Scott Cable KR-2S # 735 Linden, MI s2cable1@yahoo.com __________________________________ Do you Yahoo!? SBC Yahoo!

I have fitted my lower wing skins (Dan Diehl) and making the wing tanks, as per instructions. Questions 1 What is a good fuel sender to use, or how are you manually dipping your fuel tanks? 2 Finishing the leading edge, Do you use the v/ester, because it is really difficult to sand? 3 Has anyone split the wing tank in half, and fit two filler caps on each wing, this may save a sender unit, and make it possible to manually dip the smaller tanks before flight. 4 What fuel system do you use if you do not use a front tank? i.e. duel pumps plus the engine driven pump?

If I was getting 175 spam messages per REAL message, I'd change my address, change ISPs, spend whatever it took to fix the problem, or just plain shoot myself...

Someone/something has put your present address out for attack. I have a seldom used Yahoo address, and get essentially zero spam. A real ISP like Earthlink will be even better. My Earthlink address is also very good, except for the Nigerian offering to give me money. Earthlink will grab off the virus attacks and flush 'em away.

It is located in Longview, TX. You can learn more about the project at. www.geocities.com/trentflemming/ The fuselage is basically complete; the wing spars are complete, but not drilled. The spars are the bigger size in order to use the airfoils created by Mark Langford and team. However the fuselage has not been cut so if someone wanted to use the stock spar, it should not be a problem. I honestly cannot remember all the details as I have not worked on the project in about 4 years. I have a dragonfly canopy that is still in its protective wrap from the factory. The color is charcoal grey if I remember correctly. It comes with the upper landing gear bracket that mounts to the larger spars. I have a couple sheets of foam. A couple of videos from the gathering and a video on the corvair engine, it also comes with a ton of information all bound neatly and even organized. It was kind of a book of mods that I was planning and organized by what stage they should be integrated. It includes a corvair engine conversion manual and of course the KR-2S plans. I am asking $1500. If you have any question you can email or call me.
