A 1300# KR isn't the point. The wing spar won't support that much of a weight increase.
The question is: Will a KR2 AT THE RR MAX WEIGHT OF 900 POUNDS stall at 51.785 mph or less and will a KR2S at the RR max weight of 980 pounds? Given the RR published stall speed is 52mph. And lest we forget: Will the KR1 at a max wt of 750 pounds? It also has a published stall of 52mph. -- wesley scott k...@spottedowl.biz ----- Original Message ----- From: "Dan Heath" <da...@alltel.net> To: <kr...@mylist.net> Sent: Sunday, August 08, 2004 5:46 AM Subject: Re: KR> KR2S Sport pilot eligible??? > That is my point exactly.
