My testing notes would indicate that my KR, 760 pounds empty,
stock KR wing with 8 inches total less span, at 70 -75 mph, 
engine at idle, decending from 3500 feet to 3000 feet took about
54 to 56 seconds.  That comes out to about 550 fpm . At 70 mph
in smooth air with the engine at idle it feels like you're floating !!

I was impressed for a 20 foot wing.
