As I recall, it was originally designed to be a racer. A friend almost bought one...up and running for $10k with an IO 360. The owner claimed it would do 220 mph flat out. However, if the seller claims it is 90% done, you have to assume it is 90% to go. I guess the question here is: how much is the seller asking.

I came home from work about two years ago and my son (3 years old at the time) had driven 3 nails into my stub wing. Thank god he did it where very minor damage was done. They never touched my plane after that unless I was there with them.

Don't beat yourself up over that. Not a big deal at all. We all showed up, had a good time, and didn't give it a second thought. Past history, so don't worry about it, and welcome to KRnet.

I sent back a stainless exhaust to RevMaster because it just wouldn't fit. Today the Great Plains exhaust arrived and it looks like it must be mounted BEFORE the nose wheel mount is installed. From the aspect of maintenance, this seems like a lot of extra work anytime I'm going to remove/ rework the engine installation. If you are running a 4-1 on a tri-gear, what is your secret? Thanks!

I have information on the company and links to information, but I was hoping there might be someone with both KR experience and Midget Mustang experience that can comment on if the flying characteristics are similar.

On the right wing, I have to do the bottom skin, wing tip and aileron. Still a ways to go on the wings. I plan on having most of this work done by the Gathering which, by the way is 23 days away.

Only 23 short days till we all begin our yearly feeding frenzy. Just watch what happens as a KR pulls up on the ramp. Something inside us begins to change. Our lips start to quiver as the hair on the back of our neck starts to stand up. We anxiously await the shutdown of the engine so we can begin our feast. Many times to pilot hardly has time to exit his KR before the crowd engulfs his mighty bird. Only not to leave until we have savored every detail the KR has to offer. Be there once and you will always return because you never get enough. BTW, tomorrow is the deadline for the $66 Holiday Inn rooms.
