We're just stopping for dinner on the way home from picking up my tail kit.

10 years old, never started.

I'm really leaning towards the 8A, but the location of the wiggly wheel has plenty of time to be decided

Congratulations!

I'm building one of the other models but I've gotta say, building it is good absorbing fun.

Congrats

I started the same way. a ten year old empenage kit that was still in the box. not flying yet, but it has been the most rewarding enjoyable experience building this plane. i estimate another 6 months that will make it 3.5 years building

That's a great photo
I wish I could have built my RV but alas it was not practicable for me so I bought a flying machine, conventional u/c 8 of course (the real mans version) and have never looked back Me takes me hat off to those that toil for years to build a flying machine maybe in my next life but for now I burn Avgas rather than the midnight oil
