Auto Credit Based on Chingchoong's Build a plane out of this fuelsalage
When Choong Aerodynamics outsourced the design work of it's general aviation aircraft to HKAS, the top engineers at HKAS took a look at the unfinished fuselage and immediately delcared that this project was not worthy for their time and effort. Therefore most of the work was completed by inexperienced engineers, interns and sometime janitors. The result is this kit plane which buyers need to assemble themselves.
The K-10-P1 can comfortably seat 4 to 6 people and the low V-tail provide easy access to the tail controls. These in addition to an easily reachable engine made the K-10-P1 popular in the general aviation market.
