KR> LSA Specs.

To get the full story on LSA specs, go to: http://www.sportpilot.org/learn/aircraft_index.html It is not the top speed that is important, but the speed for maximum CONTINUOUS power. The people who have the 3300 Jabiru powered Sonexes, which can easily exceed the 120 kt limit, (138 mph), had a

For the plans. I now have a complete set of drawings for the KR2 - which will be quite useful in finishing/fixing up my plane.

KR> Oil Cooler

KRNetters, I just received a quality oil cooler I'm going to use on my KR2S. I ordered it through CXRacing on Ebay. They have a supply of different sized coolers at great prices. The one I ordered is an aftermarket for a 3000GT Eclipse with a core of 11"x4.75"x2" with AN-8 fittings, at just $52 (I

Ron. Do you have Tail numbers of KR's which  are LSA? My KR1 specs to stall at 39 kts (45mph) and Im certain that with a 1300 or 1600 it would not exceed 135MPH. Of course, that would be a waste of a perfectly good KR1. I am looking forward to the new regs. If the country wants GA to thrive, its

Boy Ron, I needed to hear some positive. Thanks. I was under that same impression. As long as I meet the requirements of LS then I should be able to go for it. Bob On Mon, Apr 16, 2012 at 12:09 PM, Ronald Wright wrote: > There are several KRs currently flying under LSA rules, legally.  Not sure

There are several KRs currently flying under LSA rules, legally.  Not sure why you don't think a KR can fly slower than 138 mph?  Most cruise around 125/130 unless they've gone to larger engines.  51mph stall speed is also doable in a light KR..   Other simple solution is don't register it as a

Dave, The kits should be the same. I find AS is usually a little less expensive, sometimes just pennies, but for those of us who live in the Dallas/Fort Worth area you will get it quicker from Wicks. I can order something Wednesday morning and it will be waiting for me when I get home on Friday

Bob, The FAA now has a petition in hand from AOPA and EAA to increase the scope of driver's license in place of medical certificates to a flat 180 HP and fixed gear. According to an FAA inspector that I spoke to at Sun N Fun he thought it would go through after an economic impact study was done.

Question, I was talking to my future instructor Saturday and mentioned that I plan on going for a LSA rating on my KR2S when complete. My plans were to obtain my Sport Pilot rating and build the KR to the LSA specs. He didn't seem to like that idea too much. He stated that I would be cheating the s
