OK fellas, I have been trolling this forum as well as the Dragonfly and Sonerai mailing list trying to decide what I want to build. I would like something that is side by side and fairly easy to build. I want something that flies well and want be too hard to transition from a cessna 150 to. More than likely it will be vw powerd. I like the corvair engines but like the ability to have two separate ignition systems on the vw engine. I am about 6' and weigh 205. I have narrowed the choice down to either a kr2, or a sonerai 2ls, or a dragonfly. Since I want a side by side plane I am leaning more to the kr or the dragonfly. My main question is how much room is availible in the kr2s. Can I fit comfortably with another passenger? After reading about the dragonfly they say it has about as much shoulder room as a 172 and enough leg room for a 6' 6" pilot. I would rather have a plane with conventional styling and handling charactoristics and that is why I am posting here. What kind of usefull load would I have with a to plans built kr2s and the 75hp vw engine? Well we will start with this and see what kind of replys I get and go from there. I would love to fly down to SC this weekend to meet some of you and see some krs in person but my 150 is down for some repairs.
