KR> Folding wing

[omotosho olalekan]

Ken wings are easy removable as claimed but with 45 mins work i think it does 
not worth it which mean 90 mins of work in total to install and remove. I think 
by  implimenting an aft folding wing similar to what is available for the 
Mustang II should work on KR.

KR> Folding wing

[Jose Fuentes]

THe one major problem when I was thinking about it, is fuel tanks, for
anyone that wants more fuel and figures to put it in the wings, then it
would have to be very secure for when the wing is folded.

I had seen a design before that used a tube within a tube design with a pin.
basically there was a hinge on on the inner tube that slid into the other
tube with a pin to hold it in place. So when you wanted to remove or fold
the wing you pulled the pin and slid the wing out and folded it up.

I magine one could do this for a KR2(s) with one of these setups on either
side of the wing. The Pin would have to be spring loaded to keep it in place
and tight with maybe a couple pull cords on the inside the cockpit to pull
on to pull the pin back so that the wing can be free.

You are talking about adding possibly 25 to 30lbs for such a feature though.

Joe

KR> Storm in Tennessee

[kr2coo...@comcast.net]

Greene County TN, where I live has been declared a disaster area because of the 
tornado that hit about 5 miles from my home killing 6 people. I sat on my deck 
and watched a storm pass NW of us that spawned tornadoes in Virginia then the 
storm which spawned the tornado nearby passes SW of me but I got some hail from 
it. Thank goodness I had no damage because I just recently recovered from 
damage from a frozen pipe in my attic which caused several thousand dollars 
damage to my house. My heart and prayers go out to those who lost life and 
property in this storm and all the storms over the past month.

Folks



I have just seen some absolutely terrible footage of the tornados over there. 
My best wishes to each and any of you guys and your families affected. I would 
like to donate something to a worthy and relevant cause if someone could please 
forward me some details off line. Global nature seems most displeased at 
present.
