KR-1 

The KR-1 is a single seat low wing aircraft which can be powered by a certified or auto conversion engine.  It is typically powered by smaller VW engines, up to the 2100cc.  As with all KR's, the KR-1 is equipped with removable wings, and your choice of fixed conventional, or tricycle gear.

Speed, economy and range.  Designed for the first-time builder.

  • Utilizing wood and foam/fiberglass construction
  • No hot-wiring required  

  • Pre-molded parts greatly speed construction time (approximately 800 hours)

  • A well-proven design for over 30 years!
