Paul H. Knepper from Tamaqua, Pennsylvania, was an aircraft engineer. He worked at several aircraft companies before becoming an instructor at the Pittsburgh Institute of Aeronautics. Here he designed his first airplane. He built the Ka-1 Crusader as a prototype for a training plane that he had planned to commercially produce in Lehighton, Pennsylvania. The two-seater featured an innovative tricycle landing gear with a wheel under its nose that prevented the tail from dragging upon landing.
