KR> brs vs bean field option

2015-07-29 Thread Tony King
There is a KR on Oz with a BRS.  I haven't seen it up close, but it
belonged to Barry Kruyssen.  I know he had it for sale a while back.  Not
sure where it is now.

Take a look at http://www.athertonairport.com.au/kr2/

Cheers,

Tony

It's a canister style mounted on the front of the firewall! Interesting. My 
concern would be the heat.

they weigh like 18lb, iirc (plus harness).  I suppose it has to attach to frt 
and rear spars on either side of the pilot... how much total weight did you 
figure?

.the key driver is the max gross of the

emergency landing topography than almost anywhere else

I wonder if anyone has installed a BRS system. they have those which are 
internal and flush (invisible)

the downsides of course in a KR is the loss of cargo area, and adding weight 
behind the CG.  Although maybe it would be possible to address both issues with 
front deck installation... (where the fuel tank used to be in the original 
design)

if nothing else, the peace of mind would seem worth it.

I didn't get that far because I hadn't figured out max gross yet and weight
and price of unit go up exponentially with max gross.

I contacted the company a couple of years ago and they have already
designed a harness for the kr...the key driver is the max gross of the
aircraft.
