On October 2, 1995, about 1545 eastern daylight time, N2CC, a Clapp KR-2 crashed after takeoff from Herlong Airport, in Jacksonville, Florida, while on a 14 CFR Part 91 personal flight. Visual meteorological conditions prevailed at the time and no flight plan was filed for the planned local flight. The pilot and instructor pilot received serious injuries and the airplane was destroyed. There was an extensive postcrash fire. The flight was originating at the time. Witnesses observed the airplane use almost the total of 3,500 feet of runway 11 and "stagger" into the air. The airplane then stalled and crashed into trees. This was the first flight in this airplane by both pilots. A postaccident examination of the airplane by an FAA inspector revealed that the plane was 192.3 pounds over maximum allowable weight. Both seats had been moved to the rear by 2 inches from the original design. The pilot did not perform a proper preflight plan. Multiple attempts to obtain an NTSB 6120.1/2 pilot/operator report from the pilot were unsuccessful.
