If a person has Diehl wing skin's with the Raf 48 airfoil and mounted
AS5046 rib's, Will the skin's fit?

I also built the AS5048 airfoil and had to devise a bellcrank system since
the stock was too large
"If a person has Diehl wing skin's with the Raf 48 airfoil and mounted

Hello Don,
I have built my wings with the Diehl skins and my first reaction would be to
say no. The skins themselves are fairly flexible cord wise as far as airfoil
shape is concerned but

Mark L had a lot of comments about this at the gathering but not everyone
got to hear.

Probably so. Few people build KR1's anymore (it's usually a KR2S that's
narrowed a bit), so nobody's built a KR1 with the new airfoil, but it is
interchangeable with the
"I think it's pretty safe to say that if you are building a new KR2 or
KR2S, you should be using the new airfoil."
Dumb question, can I assume this suggestion applies to the kr1 kr1.5 etc
(all kr variants) as well?
KRnetHeads,
At the Gathering, it was brought up that a downside to the "new airfoil"
is that the aileron bellcrank has to be modified (due to the thinner
airfoil cross section at the bellcrank location, I assume). One look at
that bellcrank was enough to tell me that I needed something
