I have not but know a few who have. Lots and lots of sanding. When you finish sanding you start sanding some more. Then repeat the process. When you are done with that you start sanding. | |||

Just my opine here, but if you go building a kit plane, your friends will never get to see you unless we come up and hang out in the garage where you'll be tinkering with your project. Go finance a used plane and enjoy flying and seeing your buddies!  Rusty We Band of Brothers! DRSS, NRA & SCI Life Member "I am rejoiced at my fate.

I've owned 2 homebuilts, one of them I put a bit of time on, but both were projects started by someone else first. If I had to do another one (and there is a strong possibility of that happening again) I'd do it the same way- decide on a couple planes you'd like, then start browsing for projects for sale. when you find one show up with cash and a trailer and if the workmanship looks acceptable then start making offers. for every hour in front of the computer you should have 3 hours outside | |||

Looking into it -- these are likely "next" builds for me -- I am looking hard at the bd-4c .. its wider, longer, and taller than the original bd4 -- we shall see --- i just like to build stuff! opinions vary band of bubbas and STC hunting Club Information on Ammoguide about the416AR, 458AR, 470AR, 500AR What is an AR round?

Driving back from Montreal last month I can say that some lucky bastard bought himself a nice project... On a gooseneck trailer behind a late model F-350 Crew cab was what appeared to be a Complete "Alpha Jet" jet trainer.... In peices. That being said the performance of something like the turboprop version of the Lancair evolution looks like it would be a laugh riot... But before I'd shell out nearly $1million on a KIT I'd go shopping for a used Piper CheyenneII. AD If I provoke you into thinking then I've done my good deed for the day! Those who manage to provoke themselves into other activities have only themselves to blame. *We Band of 45-70er's* 35 year Life Member of the NRA NRA Life Member since 1984 | |||
