Really nice looking paint job. The color scheme and pattern are similar to what I'm planning, if I can ever get it to fly. Would you please send me a PM with the information on your paint guy, including a rough approximation of cost, so that I can use it for planning purposes. I'm a ways off from paint and still saving for my engine and prop, so I know those numbers will change. However, it would be good to have a ballpark, since your scheme and colors are so close to mine. Thanks.

Fortunately when I finished the build and it came to the interior and exterior colors, My wife and daughter said, for your safety, step away from the plane.

Plane is VERY impressive! But even more impressive to know you built this in 13 months!!! It took me that long just to build the cabin top and doors. I can't even imagine how you and your wife completed the whole project in that time frame and am in awe of that accomplishment! Way to go!!!

Very Nice! It appears you fabricated a trim strip for the lower front windscreen, which also looks very finished.

John,
Looked at your profile and saw your location and I think I live fairly close to you. Sent you a Private Message. Would love to come see you plane in person if possible.
