KR> Sorry for the trouble

2012-01-07 Thread LG McCaw
Glenn,

You might let Mark know the names of the other email providers. It
sounds like the KRNet may have been added to some blacklists. He'll have to
track'em down and request to be removed.  They'll test his system to make
sure it's not a relay or spambot or whatever and remove it. It's a pain in
the butt, I have to do it constantly for several of my customers. It usually
happens when people are too lazy to ask to be removed, so they just report
it as spam to their ISP's 

Take care,
L.G.

Sorry folks, I ran through 6 email accounts trying to figure out who wouldnt

KR> Fwd: another email to the net

2012-01-07 Thread LG McCaw
OK Glenn,

Looks like I got the first one, a reply from Barrett and another
reply from you.  I never saw your 4th email from the first test, I saw the
first, second, third and fifth. Also a reply from Virg, and a couple of
others. Also, that's the first time I can recall seeing my own replies come
through back to me. I can't usually tell it's gone through till I've seen a
ticked off reply come back (It's a knack).  ;-)

Take care, hope this helps...
L.G.

KR> KR2S qualify as LSA?

2009-08-05 Thread LG McCaw
I think that has all been covered before but basically the KR in ANY
form will be certificated under the Experimental Category (Usually the
amateur built experimental).  There is CAN BE NO such thing as an E-LSA
KR because E-LSA is a KIT based on S-LSA. S-LSA is a factory assembled
plane that has meet the testing requirements.   And (if I'm not
mistaken) the E-LSA kit can be delivered in any stage of completion,
whereas the experimental category is subject to the 51% rule.

However - a sport pilot can still fly the KR provided it meets the
performance specifications for LSA craft.   Modifications you'd have to
make include getting the clean (no-flaps) stall speed low enough and
specifying top end numbers the fall within the LSA category. No
retracts, etc etc.  Biggest  hassle is getting the stall low enough,
which requires redesign of the wing, etc.  Top end numbers can be
defined by the builder either through prop selection and or engine
operating limits. (Since using an auto conversion such as a vair or VW
required you to define engine limits etc.  If you use an 0-200 or
something similar, you might have a tougher time of it.)

If it (the KR2S) has already been accepted under a standard experimental
category, it cannot be converted to E-SLA. 
I have also read that even certificated aircraft that meet the weight
and performance criteria of a SLA (Cub, etc.) can be flown by pilots
with
the Sport Pilot Certificate.

KR> light sport vs. experimental

2009-06-01 Thread LG McCaw
I did some checking into this myself.  The way I understand it,
there are two classes of LSA.  Those being S-LSA which are factory built
LSA compliant airplanes.  These are not "certified" planes, rather are
build to accepted standards and are self-regulated by the manufacturer.
The prototype is tested and reviewed by the FAA, but then it's up to the
manufacturer to maintain build quality without variance from the
prototype. 
The other category is E-LSA which is an "experimental LSA"  This
category is built from a KIT that is based on an SLSA airplane.  In
other words, to be classed as an ELSA, there first must be an SLSA
version.  The ELSA may come in any stage of completion, but no variation
from the SLSA prototype is allowed.  So, forget an LSA classed version
of the KR.  
So, that leave the only one option available, E-AB. Sport pilots
may fly ANY plane (certified(Experimental or otherwise), SLSA, ELSA)
provided it meets the regulations for the plane (as Larry said).  
All the rules for E-AB apply, and as I understand it, since you,
as builder, set the operating limits for the plane and there is no
"official" language defining VW or Corvair operational limits, you may
prop and define the limits as falling within the LSA category. IE: 2500
RPM limit with whatever prop (or appropriate) etc.  Doesn't mean the
plane can't exceed it, just means you'd be operating outside the defined
limits if you do exceed it ( which means, outside the law and probably
as important outside insurance coverage).  If you get caught.??  
The only question I've never really had a satisfactory answer
for is - IF I receive and E-AB certificate with stated limits falling
within the LSA category, (making it sport eligible) and later re-prop or
restate the max RPM or whatever, is it possible to reestablish the
operating limits - the certificate never changes it's always E-AB. I've
been told yes, probably require another 20-40 hour fly off, and I've
been told no, once the limits are defined it's very difficult to change
them.  The top end issue can be handled by propping/rpm limits on the
engine etc.  The bigger problem is getting the stall low enough, without
flaps or other device. That would require modifying the wing, maybe
longer as Mark L suggests or different shape.  (At that point, it could
be argued that it's no longer a KR anyway.)

Just my two cents,

L.G.M.

If I'm not mistaken, and I might be, a light sport pilot can fly any
aircraft
that meets the requirement of light sport.  I seem to also recall that
the
builder of a light sport aircraft must attend a class before he can do
the
"annual inspection" on his aircraft, even though he / she built it.  In
discussing the pro's and con's with a local LSA builder, the only
positive
side of licensing it as LSA was that if he ever sold the airplane, the
new
buyer could attend a class and then do his own inspection.  If you're
not
building to resell, I see no reason to go LSA certification.  I also
recall
there were many restrictions on doing any mod's on a LSA but that
may just be on a "kit" built aircraft.  If all the above info is 
correct, license
as experimental, get the mechanics certificate for your aircraft, and
then
fly it as light sport.  Your only hurtle will be getting a KR 
derivative licensed
as a LSA.  Someone with the correct answers chime in here.

KR> Brochure of the KR-3 amphib

Scott, 

If you read the little blurb above the picture, it says it's a
two seater, expected cruise is 115 knots.  Empty weight it 570 pounds,
full load is 1000 pounds. Power is 2100cc VW with a variable pitch 3
blade prop.  You might try writing RR and see if you get any
response.

Good luck,
