Or the specific name for the composite? Thanks again.

Larry,
When I had my KR-1 (around 400# e.w.), I came pretty close to the takeoff
and landing performance as advertised (1700 cc VW), but certainly not
anywhere close to 180 mph cruise (125-135 cruise).

Along the same lines, I sure wish someone would fess
up and give the "REAL"

If I didn't have things waiting on me back home I would have rather

Seems to me that Ken was killed several years before the 2S plans
were developed. Along the same lines, I sure wish someone would fess
up and give the "REAL" performance numbers in advertising the KR
aircraft. Takeoff in 350 feet, land in 650 feet, 180 mph cruise,
really?
Yes, Ken was killed a long time before the 2S was developed.

Have you verified who built this plane? If it was actually built by
Ken Rand it should be in a museum (indoors) as it would be a piece of
aviation history. Does it have a data plate on it or did you
If you came up with a structure that had the aircraft still sitting on its
landing gear (or with brackets of some sort attached to the axles) you'd
have to expect it wouldn't do any damage to the aircraft. An arrangement
that somehow attached to the upper landing gear mount points probably would
Thanks to Dan John and Pete for all the work for the gathering. Learned a
many new things and had great time. Kim and I arrived back in Grand Junction
around 5:30 mountain time yesterday, with just a little interesting
turbulence in northern Utah and Colorado. Again thanks to all at the
