2/14/2013 - 2 years of work today! Can't believe I started on Valantines day... Don't even remember that. 1736 hrs done, estimate 900 more to go (including 350 for painting) If I keep the same progress should be just about this time next year for first flight.

Another long time without posts. This time it is because I broke my hand indoor skydiving. I have 4600 skydives without any major injuries, and then go and break my hand indoor skydiving. That slowed down work considerably, and caused me not to be able to type. These posts should catch up to the work that has been done.

Spreadsheet below contains my build notes and times. I update this after every build session. For pictures and more detailed commentary see the individual posts. For the most part I am only making a detailed post on difficult things, or things that are not specified in the plans, or things done differently from the plans. There are plenty of sites that detail every deburring and assembling step. What I found that I wanted was details on peoples Mods, so that is what I am trying to provide for the next builder.
