2008-10-12 Thread robert tallini
I have read with interest the ltrs. to the Net re. the concern many pilots have in the ground handling of a tail dragger KR type.As Danny DiVito says in a current T.V. commercial, "Lies, all lies." Tail draggers are not the prop chewing wing tip destroyers they are credited with bei

2008-10-12 Thread robert tallini
Colin & bev Rainey Just want to let you know what a nice job you did in explaining the anatomy of a taildragger landing. It was a lot better, more complete, than my effort. When I went thru flight training the Navy wanted landings to be tail wheel first. Make sure the hook enga

2008-10-12 Thread robert tallini
There is one more point I should like to make concerning my request for opinions regarding the strength of 3/16" ply webs on 23012 airfoil spars. I was not asking for opinions on the airfoil. I was disappointed, and not a little irritated to find myself the subject of comments concerning my g

Please bear with me as this is a new computer and I'm having a little trouble getting used to it. The question I have for anyone who would care te express an opinion concerns the airfoil for a KR2S. The design I would like to use is the one Roy Marsh developed for the KR2S prototype. It is a
