Yeah you could say so.. :-) When I bought the plans, I was going to build a KR2-S, and an A&P gave me this project I just sold.... when I sat in it, I realized I'd have to cut the boat and make it bigger if I was to ever fly with a passenger larger than a puppy.
The Coot looks interesting, but the air car is HUGE !! Yes, 4x the money at least... hey, its 2100 # empty so I figure that's 4x the materials of the KR2... I'd like to apply some of the time savings from the Coot (composite hull) to the air car. I understand the air car as done in the plans is a very time consuming wood hull with complex structures... -dave Larry&Sallie Flesner wrote: > At 06:52 AM 2/18/2009, you wrote: > >> Well, now that someone got my KR2 project for $461, I need to find an >> amphibian to build from plans..
