Each year Jeanette Rand suggests I host the Gathering in Southern Illinois so she can combine the trip to visit family. She grew up and graduated high school just eight miles from where I live. She and Ken started their college days at Southern Illinois University. There are two great airports near where I live but they are both tower controled. A third airport just fourty miles north of here would make an ideal gathering site. Mt. Vernon Illinois airport has intersecting runways, plenty of hangar space, a large ramp area, an FBO, a shop with an A & P/ IA, currently has a resturant/bar in the terminal, plenty of hotel rooms and resturants in the area, etc. It is located at the intersection of I-64 (E/W) and I-57 (N/S) interstate highways and is just 75 miles east of St. Louis for those flying in commercial. The airport manager and local EAA chapter (active), I'm sure, would lend their support as well as the local Chamber of Comm and the local tourism office. I have not approached them on this directly yet but suggestions in the past drew a very positive response. The location would be pretty much central for everyone East of the Rockies. You can go to and check it out. Airport identifier is MVN . At the bottom of that page is info about the city, etc. This is not an "offical" proposal yet but I wanted to throw it out there so as not to get lost in the fray. I wasn't expecting this subject to come up quite so soon but it's never too soon to get started. An event of this size takes some major planning.

Capps" Subject: RE: KR> 2004 Gathering Message-ID: <001b01c2a6b3$dbf77660$0200a8c0@schpankme> I would actually suggest moving the event to Williamson County Airport in Marion, IL. (45 minutes south of Mt Vernon); It could easily accommodate us with plenty of evening entertainment, restaurants and hotels. However, having not talked to the airport commissioner for 6-years, someone like Larry F (my I volunteer you) living 10 minutes away, might find out the possibility of such an event occurring there. In the past the airport authority in conjunction with the restrung was always open to this type of activity. Larry A.

We have a couple of KR2's in Havelock NB, and another one in Stanley NS that could be convinced to give it a try if the weather is good enough. I know that Kip in Lincoln Me would go too if he can. So don't stop developing your plan for lack of interest because there is some for sure .

I don't know if any of you other netters got the email about the liitle airport in PA But their inviting the KR family to attend a event sometime in the end of April. I contacted the fellow and found out he to is also a KR2 builder The runway is 4000ft and 30ft wide with emergency services on the field and Hotels within a mile or two all he needs to know is how many are coming the number being trailered in so he can provide hanger space and the number being flown in. I know it maybe short notice But for those of us living in the eastern states it would give us all a chance to get together and show our little pride's and joys off this could be the start of something good!.

I didn't realize that we lived so close to each other. Since I live in Evansville, IN, just across the state line, Mt. Vernon, IL would be so convenient that I would probably have to volunteer to help out. Sure, I have abandoned the KR-2 for a Van's RV-7A but I still have a soft spot in my heart for the KR. Don't know if I will have my RV done in time to fly to the gathering but I sure hope to.

Everyone would like to have it within driving = distance if they have not finished their plane. The main thing is that = everyone should have that convenience, and to do that, the meeting has = to move every two years at the most. It should be close to the west = coast and then close to the east coast and then lower Midwest and then = upper Midwest. If you can't drive to it and cannot find a plane ride = then you would have to wait until it gets close to you again. We can't = expect to have every KR builder there at every meeting. My vote is to keep the status Quo.
