Now you tell me :( I thought I was going to fly on the cheap when I paid $15,975 for my Lancair kit. What I forgot to consider, though, was the cost of the engine, prop, instruments, paint, upholstery, tools, and supplies...not to mention a couple decades of my life to finish the project. But hey, I try to look at the "good" side. The finished plane is now worth about 1/3 of the money I spent on it. But I learned a lot...
