Larry, The easiest way is to spend a little extra buying longer wood. Alternatively, you could add 12 inches to the wing spars. The standard KR-1 wing is 17 feet long with wood enough to build it 17.5. Adding a foot to the spar will give nearly a 20 foot wingspan. Winglettes will work, too. I m running a dry wing and only the header tank. Finished, I expect the plane to be within 50# of the design weight.
