I thought about splitting mine down the middle, then scabbing in a pie shaped piece to fill the void. After much consideration, I felt the bottom line was that splitting a RR part would be adding un-necessary weight, and involve waaay to much finish sanding to yield acceptable results. I built my own Hat-stiffened turtle deck that ended up weighing half as much as the RR "pre-molded" part. Sanding and forming foam is only about 1000% easier than sanding micro and / or flox. Your results may vary, but you can see how I built mine at: http://www.kr-builder.org/ScottCable/index.html Godd luck and happy sanding! kr2flyer wrote: Has anyone had success taking the Rand Robinson pre-molded turtledeck for the KR2 and lengthening it to fit a longer fuselage? Mine fuselage is 14" longer than the original KR2 but shorter than the KR2S. Is it worth the effort to adapt it?

I don't want to sound like a party-pooper, but that looks to me like reckless endangerment. If someone from the FAA were there or someone took this photo and used it in a formal complaint, it could mean a loss of license and large fine. I think that this kind of thing is just not worth it.

Marty Roberts was reprimanded at last year's Gathering by a local pilot who did not like his arrival techniques. There is a time and place for "hot dogging" and I personally do not feel that there was any problem with Bill's performance over Hartford. I see things like this there fairly frequently. A relaxed atmosphere does not mean that pilots are not using good common sense. There was no traffic in the area when this took place and if there had been, it would not have happened. This discussion could go on for a long time but the event is over, no one was hurt, everyone had a good time and everyone enjoyed the fly by. This is another story for the circle discussions.

You even remembered to put the shodow of the KR in the grass. :-) I love WILD AND CRAZY as much as anyone but at the Gathering , all fly-bys shall be confined to the runways, same as last year. After Marty was counciled on his arrival procedure, everything went well. Mark L., did the photo of our 200mph fly-by with the 6 or 8 deer on the runway turn out?

I remember my first gathering.... it was at Rough River Falls and I was laying on the grass at the end of the runway while the KRs took off and did high speed passes right overhead. What an experience. I did notice that the negative comments all came from persons who were NOT there. Apparently, those who WERE there and knew what was really happening, did not seem to be too concerned about it. See you in Mt. Vernon - 2005 - KR Gathering See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics There is a time for building and a time for FLYING and the time for building has expired. Daniel R.
