Hubee57, Thanks! The Kasperwings we fly today have twice the thrust of the original machines, they are far more more fun than single cylinder UL you remember. We have also upgraded many other features to improve performance and safety.
love this video.. amazing .. is it possible to come over to flying site and watch you guys flying up close?!! is there any requirement to fly kasperwing?! LSA?! i do hang gliding, paragliding and speed flying and i like to learn to fly what you guys fly. i enjoyed every single second of this video..
Driftseen, The Kasperwing is a FAR Part 103 aircraft, no certification or license is required to operate. Production ended in the late 1980's with 333 Kasperwings being produced by Cascade Ultralights, occasionally a used machine surfaces for sale on the internet, they are usually well worn. I will forward your comment to Scott Price who owns the field, visitors are welcome.
Jim,Drop in (north Camano) for a visit next time you are up in your B1RD.A few fight worthy KWs are still about, more often they are in need of extensive upgrading and repair. A small number of replica KWs have been built but it is a difficult and time consuming project, there are no published plans available. Ebay, Barnstormers and Kasperwing.com are the place to find a project KW ultralight.
Great video...I flew one back in the early 1980's it was great fun...
