It went on for about 2 hours and then I took an aspirin and went back to bed. After another 2 hours of indigestion, I went to the hospital. They told me I was having a heart attack and the aspirin probably saved my life. I now have a stent implanted in my right coronary artery. The attack was nothing like what is described on TV, etc. No pain in arm or chest and losing consciousness.

I quite agree. My only interest in Dynel was the historical aspect and in noting that, contrary to many reports I have seen, it is still available in a 5-oz plain weave at a reasonable cost. It did work well for the early builders and I thought it might be an interesting project for the krnet participants to duplicate the original KR-1. That is it might be, if one person wanted to take it on as a project, or if several people wanted to participate in a shared project. On my KR, er... modified KR, (I am not duplicating the original KR or even building a KR2S) I will be using Kevlar for light weight with good tensile strength (but lousy in compression), with carbon where I need stiffness and strength in both tension and compression, and E-glass primarily as a sanding veil and/or finish surface. So far progress has been very slow. Lots of analysis of modifications and only a small amount of actual work. You could call it analysis paralysis... EXCEPT, I started this to have an activity and a goal when I was suffering from depression during a divorce. If I complete it GREAT! I might even start on another right away with even more modifications. If I don't complete it, well... I am enjoying myself which is a lot better than being depressed. My approach is to plan each change as a part of the whole with emphasis on safety and then build each part once with rejected parts being due to QA rather than lack of planning. Eventually, as I start to implement mods, I will share them and my reason for each via a web site. At this point I have ideas but no results to show.

My single seat KR is nearly finished 99.99% and to meet class III medical I would have to take hypertension meds to pass or loose weight over time. I wrote a reply to NPRM now that the FAA has released it for the 90 day commentary period stating my suggestions and hardships that the speed limitations invoke. It states the 1232 # and Vh 115 kts are figures of Kinetic Energy origin and pilot skill levels. I argued my point of view as an experienced licensed private pilot with logged time in GA ac that flew at 180 kt speeds and the relative weight of a single seat KR1 at 1000# gross could fly at higher speeds than 115 kt limitation and still have K.E. similar. The most prominent thought occurred to me that endorsements could be incorporated for higher speeds both Vs and Vh for the Light Sport Aircraft that one specifically desires to fly and thus accomodate the original intent of the light sport aircraft pilot rating to fly without class III medical and self certify. I believe that original intent has been lost in the present NPRM documentation. This is the time to voice and challenge the restrictive aspects of NPRM, do you all agree? The avweb.com hosts the NPRM in its entirety and can be appealed on site.
