Hey,
I may have to check into that. I believe the free plans I was speaking
of
is called a GOAT or something like that. I do wish a KR2 was a SP, I do
like
it!!!!!!

Hey Ultra!,
I like those KR's, but I have had the same concern about it that
Colin
had. I sure wish there was a Sport Pilot version of a KR. Maybe a KR
1/2
!
HAHA But I have to admit I hate fiberglass type stuff...it just eats me
up. With a total lack of decent wood available, I may have to change
plans
and go with a metal plane. I still think the Mini-Coupe is kinda neat.
And
plans are cheap! The Thatcher CX-4 is WAYYYY cool, but plans are
expensive
( for my poor butt anyway!).
But back to the gliders, have you seen the free glider plans on the
net?
I wonder if a small engine could be mounted to that thing?

I did a little checking and the KR-1B appears to meet the SP
requirements.
They not only have an approximately 6 foot longer wingspan it is also a
different shape. The max cruise speed is 130 mph with a VW 1600 and the
stall speed is lower also bringing it within range. Doesn't help you any
with the fiberglass problem though! ;-)
