NEW YORK AERO SHOW

   Horace Kean Aeroplane Co. - The new K-1 single-seater "Ace" sportplane was exhibited by this firm. This little machine has been designed to meet the ever-increasing demand for the low-priced, simple and safe "fly-about." It has ample strength, and the low landing-speed, good climb and high speed, together with its small dimensions and folding wings, are all features to this end. A simple 4-cylinder water-cooled "Ace" engine is installed, the cowling being so designed that by removing a couple of pins the whole of the engine is readily accessible. A honeycomb radiator is mounted in the nose of the fuselage, in front of the engine. Upper and lower planes are separated by one single interplane strut on each side. The principle specifications are as follows :-
Overall span 25 ft.
Overall span (folded) 9 ft.
Overall length 19 ft. 6 ins.
Overall height 8 ft.
Wing section R.A.F. 15
Area of main planes 185 sq. ft.
Gross weight 832 lbs.
Loading/h.p 20-6 lbs.
Loading/sq. ft. 4-5 lbs.
Maximum speed 80 m.p.h.
Minimum speed 30 m.p.h.
