I'm wondering if you can help me make a couple of decisions. I am about to resume construction on my KR2 kit (plans book no. 68) which I started in February of 1986 and had to put on hold for a variety of reasons (lack of assembly space, primarily). I managed to complete all the wing spars and fuselage sides plus the horizontal stab and, 17 years later, am ready to begin assembly of the "boat". My questions are; 1. Should I use T-88 glue or is one of the more expensive products listed by Wicks or A.S.&S. a better way to go? 2. My kit is the retractable gear version. At the KR gathering this year I talked with many folks who suggested going with the fixed gear instead (which I have decided to do). Now, what do I need to do before boat assembly to prepare for the fixed tail dragger version? 3. Does someone sell the fixed gear components together with plan modifications? Thanks for any ideas you can provide!

Many builders are using T-88, for structural epoxy, West system or Safetypoxy for laminating epoxy, all available at Wicks or AS&S. I would toss the unused portion of any epoxy that has been sitting around since 1986...FYI, I'm using T-88 for structural, and West System for Laminating. 2.) Check with Dan Diehl, he sells all of the components necessary to complete the modification to fixed gear. and provides the plans on how to complete the modification with the parts he sells. He's also very helpful and a really great guy. If you have internet: http://www.diehlaero.com/ Welcome back --- Bernard McLean Sr wrote: > My questions are; > 1.

After all if Ken Rand had not tried foam and dynel we may be covering our wings with wood or cloth. Everyone has there own level of comfort as the risk of trying new things goes. However if you use an unproven plywood or foam or whatever the responsibiity of the testing is on you. We as an aviation community have some intrest because if you fail to do the proper testing and enginering and then crash in a spectacular fashion all over the 10:00 news it affects us all. So as far as I am concerned buy some cheaper plywood and spruce. Build a couple mock ups and then load them to failure. Keep detailed records of the process and results. Armed with this information you can now possibly run the #s and make an educated decision for your project. Then make your reserch public so we can all use your research for the good of the comunity. I for one would be interested in what you find. If this sounds like too much work and you just want to build an airplane buy plans for an established airplane ( you should have done that already) read them and use what they recomend. Someone else has done all the research for you and there is nothing wrong with taking advantage or that. BE SAFE!!!
