  1. [uSER=321]@Methusala[/uSER] thanks for the reply.

     

    Built and flew mine in Qld.first flight 18/4/96 by me as VH-XNX later ,19-3742

     

    Revmaster 2100 .

     

    My VP was modelled off the Neil Stevenson VP from Wedderburn, in fact I had the canopy mold from him.

     

    Flew it to Narromine in 2003.

     

    My last flight was October 2004,delivered to Childers Qld.

     

    I have pics but don't know how to post.

     

    Cheers

     

    Ken.

     

     

  2. Many happy and also frustrating hours building and flying my VP2.

     

    A safe and stable flyer, with fantastic ground handling courtesy of the all flying tail.

     

    My last flight in her 8/10/2004.

     

    Delivered to the new owner in Childers, Qld.

     

     

  3. The wonderful Mr Graham Schott and his Kr2.

     

    Met Graham back in around 95 at the Kingaroy fly in after breaking the Tailwheel spring on my Vp-2.

     

    Loaned me his car to drive into town to the local springworks to quickly fabricate a new one.

     

    The guy charged me nothing, and I got back to YCAB the next morning.Never had a problem with that tailwheel spring again.

     

    Graham some years later checked me out in the KR2

     

    (VH-XXS) before I test flew mine at YCAB.

     

    Graham and His wife Sue flew that plane all over Oz.

     

    Graham passed away from melanoma a few years ago, his KR is on permanent display at Caloundra air museum, along with his famous RED bucket hat.

     

    Wonderful, joyous man, my pleasure to have known him.
