KR> KR2, does it fit?

Jannie: Try one on for size before you fall in love with it. I like KR's but they are pretty tight for me. I'm 71 inches tall, 185 pounds. I need to remove the seat cushion to comfortably close the canopy. I'm also a little prejudiced about large engines. Any aircraft is typically limited in

KR> gross weight?

A friend of mine took me for a ride in an RV 4 built by himself, his brothers and their dad. It had a big engine and a constant speed prop. I don't recall the engine size or designation, but it seemed huge. While flying the airplane, it felt like I was seated inside a bubble of alumninum foil

Thanks Glenn: neat link. Mark W N952MW Go to this link and try altering the various wing charateristics. It should help you understand the lift equation better: http://www.grc.nasa.gov/WWW/K-12/airplane/foil4a.html -- Glenn Martin Owner KR2 N1333A Biloxi, MS, 39532

Assuming you kept the same span and RAF48 airfoil, the hersey bar would add about 20 percent to the wing area all out at the tips. The initial rate of climb would go up about 20 percent; the top speed would decrease about 20 percent; the roll rate would slow by about 20 percent. The hersey bar

Jannie sent this to me,when I answered his test. now I send it you all. Phil... Wonderful. I have hundreds and hundreds of questions for you clever chaps out there and if I may I would like to start pitching away. I am not sure if my previous posts were received so If I duplicate please

Changing the wing will also require a re-visit to the tail volume, as one of tail's jobs is to counter the cm/pitching moment of the wingWhich I'd guess the Coco bar wing would have more of.Tim - Original Message - From: "Jeff Scott" There's a lot

KR> test slow night

There's a lot more to it than just mounting a constant cord wing. The airfoil, cord, incidence, washout, and wing area are probably more important than constant cord vs taperwing vs eliptical wing planform. The RV series aircraft use a constant cord wing and I certainly don't think of them as

I guess that I stated that wrong :-) what I ment was what would happen if you used a straight wing in sted of a tapered wing? Keith and Martha Crawford mar...@simerson.net ? ke...@simerson.net http://martha.simerson.net You are never too old to set another goal or to dream a new dream. -
