I'm in a position in my life where it's financially feasible to build myself an airplane. My 1 year anniversary of my check ride is coming up soon, and have been tossing around the idea of buying a 172 or building an RV. My recent ride in an RV-9 sealed the deal for me.
I ordered the "training kit" from vans this week and preview plans for the 7. I need to look this stuff over and see if my previous mechanical experience is enough to build one of these aircraft. And I also need to start my tool purchasing.
If all goes well with this, I will be ordering kits soon, then finding some builders local to the Madison area to give me a hand![Smile :) :)](data:image/gif;base64,R0lGODlhAQABAIAAAAAAAP///yH5BAEAAAAALAAAAAABAAEAAAIBRAA7)
