I'm not a KR builder but have always really liked them. I do fly Sport Pilot and any airplane that meets the speed, weight etc you can fly as Sport Pilot. The best thing is to build an experimental that meets the requirements and that's all you need. I wouldn't bother with any type LSA certification. I had an Aerosport Quail, VW powered a few years ago and flew it Sport Pilot. It was built in the 70's. I just started a Teenie Two I'm going to be flying with my Drivers Lic. I used to own one, nice little airplanes, most people may not think so. I just wanted asmall all metal single place. Jack
