This presentation took place at Oshkosh in 1992 and it was the night of the same day Herb Bull died in his plane at Oshkosh at the flyby. Herb was a very good artist and wanted to do something special to cap off the 20th anniversary. He also put together a great slide show which is part of another story. What I remember of the people in picture is: Upper right corner - the Rand kids and Kens Parents Ken and Jeanette in upper center with Jeanette's mother on the left of Jeannette Upper Middle left - Dan Diehl and Jeannette Lower Middle left - Steve Bennett Lower Middle Center and bottom - Ken and ? working on the amphibious KR Middle Right - Ken and Stu working on the first KR-2 Bottom Right - The year Ken took Oshkosh by storm with the KR-1 and KR-2 - This was a trailer Ken built just to trailer both planes to Oshkosh. Jeanette said they had a lot of looks along the way. You can tell it is the early 70's by the dress of the family in the lower right.

Enjoy - Jim Faughn 891JF Hi Jim, I don't think I have ever written anything to you, so let me say, I have read your web site and really like your little plane, and you seem to be having a fun time there. I check it every once in awhile to see if there are any updates. What happened with the Herb Bull accident? That was before my time here. I hope to meet you at a gathering in the future. Herb was quite an artist. It kinda reminds me of some of the limited Star trek art I have.
