Welcome to My KR2 Construction Home Page. Updated: July 2007 If you see anything not working ,or needs fixing, Please Send me an email. Picked up Aircraft, December 2001. But had to build and fit out a workshop. Construction started Feb. 2001, a few months latter. See Engine run at youtube: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=_eShI4perzA This Web site features the challangers of purchasing someone elses partly finished Kr2, and trying to make it into a safe and enjoyable hobby and project. My technques are from the KRnet and tips I've gathered from research and from experience. ANY MODIFICATIONS ARE NOT APPROVED BY RAND ROBINSON. My Kr purchase My Kr came from BoxHill in Sydney, some 7 hour drive from home, at the time I did not know anyone that could come with me to inspect it, so I took the chance and inspected it with my wife. It looked like a good buy with only a minimal amount to finish. ( So I thought, looks were not as they seemed) The things that made it attractive, were Diehl wing skins, and tricycle undercarrage with disc brakes, canopy, turttle deck, cowls and prop. Also the choice of two VW engines, But I later found that I needed to make new Wings, Canopy, Turtle deck, Tail feathers with Dr D's hinges ,front deck etc, etc. So I will list my building project as I go. The photo at the right is the latest shot with the wings.April 2006 up dating Some Important Links Allan Buzza, Aviation Signs: Your are Visitor Number 2665 plus |
