You mean you have flaps installed on your plane and have never don

When first installed, I noted that it would nearly flood the engine and
that an immediate leaning of the mixture was required whenever it was
turned on. I solved this one by installing a 5/32" bypass line from the
pump outlet back to the header tank. Mixture adjustments from pump on

KR Heads,
Regarding the "postage stamp" size flaps on the KR2S, I built them in and I
would disagree. They are useful in lowering the stall speed by maybe 5 mph
in stall tests I have done at altitude. Glad I made the effort to build
them.
They also are a big help to forward visibility when landin

Our eastern Hemlock is close to the specific gravity (weight) of Sitka
Spruce. The western hemlocks are about 8-10 percent heavier. We use the
hemlock here in Vermont for barn construction. The disadvantages of hemlock
might be 1- the lower elastic strenght, about 25% lower which means t
I agree that they do help slow up.
They do alter the attitude which would indicate that there is something
happening to the lift/drag ratio but I am not sure I would bet my privet hedge
on the effect on stall speed :( I have wimped out of actually doing a full flap
stall test.
In my experience
in my experience the kr flaps realy do something ===no doubt about it about 3
knots ..
i am just looking at v g s ..possibly increasing wingspan a bit ==look at diehl
