The End Of Kilroy:
http://puppetkite.tripod.com/makekil7.htm Basically, this is *The End* of the making of Kilroy... Each body part has been individually flight tested with near perfect results. My only concern is they flew *well* in fairly light winds (8 - 10 MPH). I was hoping for a top wind rating up to 40 - 50 MPH, but unless winds at that speed tend to travel right through the screen, I may end up with a rating something like 8- 28 MPH, for example. I am very surprised at how much screening makes up Kilroy (percentage) and yet able to fly in such light winds. The two rods connecting the three parts may be shortened a bit, but I want to get some flight time in with him before I cut anything off the rods. Starting with *too much* is better than *too little*. Watch for updates about Kilroy flights on the *main* Puppet Kite index page,
