"What equipment do I need?
To support ADS-B "Out", the aircraft must have a GPS receiver as the
position source, and a datalink transmitter to actually send the ADS-B data.
The datalink transmitter that most aircraft will use is a Mode S

Kinda at a loss why anyone thinks they need to post cure the glass on a KR.
The glass is just there to keep the foam from abrading away! The structural
loads are taken up by the wood. The KR is a wooden aircraft that is fleshed

Come on Robert let's be realistic on what it costs to fly our KR's. By my
record keeping fuel is only about 30% of my cost, Hangar is 50% and I only
pay 1/2 of our "T" hangar rent, liability insurance is 13% (it took a big
drop this year), incidentals (oil, filters, elt batteries, tires, brake

Mike since no one else has replied directly to your table questions - here's
my take.
The table doesn't need to be any longer that it takes to layout the fuselage
sides - so what-ever that is based on the short or long fuselage. I would
probably make it as wide as the widest part of the fuselage a
