That is my point exactly. You will not be able to get the stall speed on a KR with a liftoff weight of 1300#, down to the required speed.
I guess what the persons who want a KR that is Sport Pilot Eligible, need is another new wing that is the opposite of the old new wing. One designed for high lift and low speed. Anyway, I'm off to the shop for another day of building....... however..... "There is a time for building and a time for GOING TO THE GATHERING, and the time for building has long since expired." See you in Mt. Vernon - 2004 - KR Gathering http://KRGathering.org See N64KR at http://KR-Builder.org - Then click on the pics Daniel R.

RE: Empty weight doesn't make any difference Does it not make a difference in the amount of speed you have to carry to stay in the air? Actually, if I read the LSA regs right, it doesn't matter, as long as the gross weight and tyhe stall speed are OK, then it really does not matter how heavy the plane is empty. _______________________________________ to UNsubscribe from KRnet, send a message to krnet-le...@mylist.net please see other KRnet info at http://www.krnet.org/info.html
