The following is scanned from page 6, "Introduction" of the plans. I've inserted an X where the plans have a "plus" sign atop a "minus" sign. The OCR software would not recognize the symbol. { Design stress loading is X 7 g's at 800 Ibs gross and redline is 200mph indicated.} Anyone intending to put their butt in the seat and insert free air between the tires and the ground really ought to know this AND how THEIR KR ,at it's built weight, relates to the design specs. In "ballpark" figures, 800 X 7 =5600 pounds. If you built a 700 pound KR that you fly at 1100 pounds, you have roughly a 5 G structure. Anyone think Marty, at 770 empty weight, pulling 6G's, was pushing the "design" limits AND is YOUR KR, with a longer wing, going to be as strong? Maybe I ought to call Marty and have him buy me a lotto ticket !! Larry Flesner
