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! ;-)

Yep!
That's the one David, Does that little critter just look like alot of
fun or what? May be just to light to hold any type of engine. Maybe one of
those small government surplus things?
