Not having seen or flown an Eagle 150B I can only judge by the
info and photos on the web. My first impression is NO !
The Eagle is a very refined $120,000.00 airplane with a 125hp
Continental engine. The KR probably has less room and is
much more primitive looking. I'm also guessing that the handling
qualities of the Eagle more closely resemble a certified aircraft
than a homebuilt.
To the KR's credit, you could save $100,000.00, pick up 30 to
50 mph cruise, and have an aircraft that would more closely
reflect your personal identity and preferences.
For most KR builders the difference between the two could
simply be stated as "REALITY CHECK".
