I'd order one. The kit form was my plane to fly in the Kansas breeze when the others would bounce around too much.

Yeah, the secret to the Kaos was the great wing. I built 2 Bridi Kaos'
back in the 70's and three different pattern planes with Kaos wings with different
moments, tail designs, etc and they all flew good. The thick airfoil with
a blunt leading edge made them fly at a more constant speed and slow
speed approaches were superb. The last one was lost because of battery failure
and I built the replacement with a laminar flow airfoil like on the Eyeball and it
just wasn't as good.

I WOULD PURCHASE A KAOS 60 ARF IF ONE WAS MADE. GREAT PLANE FLIES GREAT. IN FACT THE PLANE FLIES BETTER THAN I CAN FLY.

I was hoping Great Planes/Tower would make a 60 size; since they make the 40 size. I love my mine and just bought a 60 Killer Kaos with a O.S. 61 w/ a ultra thrust muffler. I've seen it fly and is it fast!!!! I can wait to fly it; snow is forcasted this weekend [>:].

Hey, tommys,

I've got a 1974-vintage Bridi Super Kaos kit under the bed, along with a thoroughly gummed-up 61 FSR for it...

I'm saving it for a rainy-day project, after I retire. I've got the bipe itch again now, for some reason.

Three separate friends going to Toledo have orders to find me a GP Super Aeromaster kit NIB.

I have a Bridi Utter Chaos kit stashed in the closet that I'll finish one day. I'm told
they fly very good also. I almost sold it and now I'm glad I didn't as Joe Bridi is out
of the kit business. I looked on his web site and he only has the 2-meter Dirty Birdi
left. Too bad.

You can still get the original Kaos plans from RCM

I grabbed one of the last Utter Chaos kits from Bridi too. My Tower Kaos 60 is now 7 years old and flies like a bat out of hell with a ST G75 and a tuned pipe. Last weekend I noticed that a couple of the control horns are worn out. A little sevice is in order by now. If I ever lose that plane, man it's gonna hurt! Wish Tower still sold the kit.

If I could only have one plane....it might very well be a Kaos. I've been flying
this old Super Kaos for about 10 years....I have a couple "Killers" stashed.

Man , these are such popular airplanes I'm surprised some kit company hasn't revived them.
No telling who owns the rights to all the different versions. I think Joe Bridi sold the rights to
the original and that's why the name change from Kaos to Chaos.

Check on Ebay. I keep finding the Kaos kits for sale there. I have at least two GP versions of the 40 size in addition to a Bridi Killer Kaos and have em all stashed under the bench to be built later.
