Glenn, My airplane N1852Z meets LSA. However, it is licensed as an E-AB and I recommend any builder register it that way anyway. Reason is you don't know the performance numbers until you test it in Phase I. My KR2S is slow but built light and uses the RAF 48 airfoil. Stall speed was 50 mph which meets the LSA requirements. I also have a Class III medical so don't try and stick the FAA on me.

Do you have Tail numbers of KR's which are LSA? My KR1 specs to stall at 9 kts (45mph) and Im certain that with a 1300 or 1600 it would not exceed 35MPH. Of course, that would be a waste of a perfectly good KR1. I am looking orward to the new regs. If the country wants GA to thrive, its going to have to eregulate it to a greater degree. I wish the FAA would create an avionics epairmans license too. Requiring an A& P to R&R the radios is too much egulation. lenn Martin R2 N1333A iloxi, MS
