Default Not so New Guy!

So...after several years of building and flying RC, getting my license, buying a spam can...I have arrived here. I WANT to build.

Started looking at doing an HRII, then was talked out of it for doing a more practical project like a RV-8. Then wife got wind that she'd be sitting behind me, so now I am at the RV-7.

I am still in the dream phase as I need to get my addition built on my house (part of the deal with the wife, shop below, more room for shoes above) before I can get an tail kit ordered.

Glad to be here, looking forward to the adventure.

Hello!

Jason

I've just started on the Wings of my RV-7A and could not be more excited and enthusiastic about building! GO for it. It will be the most fun you've ever had with your clothes on.

Welcome to the world's best hobby!

RV-8, RV-7; doesn't really matter as they are both RV's.

Best,
Good read, I will pass it along. Since he and I are in the same valley, we'll have to get the two together sometime.

Hopefully I can get started soon. Need to find the magic money tree I planted a while ago. Seems a neighbor may have taken it.

Welcome! I'm in that dream stage too. I still need to get a basement finishing project out of the way and get my garage workshop set up. There's still lots to read on the forum to keep you occupied in the meantime.

Cheers.
