Wait for it...

$128K

My wife saw me looking at your panel Chris, and said "don't even think about it!". (Did an upgrade a few years ago, and she gets nervous and hides the checkbook when I look at panel pics! Does the same thing when I look at Rick Gray's Rockets! )

Just an awesome plane Chris...you gonna take home some trophies first, or sell it and let the lucky buyer fill his or her mantel? As has been said, whoever gets this machine is gonna have a mighty big grin!!

Well done!
Cheers,
Bob

If I had the cash, I'd shell it out for that airplane in a second! Now back to building my wings.... (sigh)

Regarding the HDR photos, trust me, the plane is much nicer in person. What you can't see is the detail of the panel. Stein did the main panel but Chris did the circuit breakers. The wiring is impeccable.

Quite some time ago we discussed making a cup holder console. He came up with this design and made a carbon fiber console then covered it in the same leather as the seats and panel.

There is so much more... Whoever gets this plane has a winner. If I wasn't into my project so deep, I'd buy it!!!!

The good news is, my new one will put this one to shame I learned a lot from Chris.
I can't wat to see an RV that puts this one to shame. That will really be something. Chris' work is very impressive!
