"Either you GET to build it, or you GOTTA build it." Right. Well, what about when you have a partner in the build? How does that affect the 51% Rule? I've been making reasonable progress on my -8 project, but I may have a partner now who wants to make significant contributions. He's a non-pilot A&P recently retired from a major airline, and he wants to jump right in. Seems like a dream come true?
I'm having a bit of a challenge, getting my mind out of the linear, "there's nobody working on it but me," to a whole other way of operating. Now, it's, "while I'm working on this, you can go ahead an get that done!" So, that's one challenge - coordinating the effort. No issues with pride of process here.
What is the FAA going to say if he's mentioned in the build log as doing THIS while I've been doing THAT? And, if they read the log carefully, what will they think if the build accelerates suddenly and I'm done in record time after I've been dawdling along?
