Jeff Scott's KR2S project


Jeff Scott's KR2S Project

revised Mar 11, 1997

Below are some photos of Jeff Scott's KR2S project.


This is a frontal picture of my project a with the C-85 engine mounted and the left wing attached. My project started it's life thinking it would grow up to be a KR-2. During the initial building process the builder that started it added a 14" section into the aft fuselage to stretch it to a KR-2S, used the streamlined KR-2S top deck, but kept the smaller KR-2 tail. I don't have the luxury of the longer legroom, but do get the cleaner looking fuselage. BTW, that is the same plan that Roy Marsh used for his KR-2S.


This is a side view of the C-85 mounted to the Rand Robinson 0-200 engine mount.


This is a view of my instrument panel. The only thing that will change is that my airspeed indicator and fuel guages will be trading places back to where they started. I swapped places between them due to an interference problem with the forward hinging canopy (soon to be changed)


The tailwheel that I installed (I don't like the stock one), and a look at the tailwheel steering. Note: I can use this taller tailwheel and spring because I'm also using the Dan Diehl glass gear built to 6" longer than stock. This picture also contains a view of how my inspection panels are built by using an aluminum ring behind the cutouts.
