These questions have probably been answred a million times but..
I am hoping to order my RV-10 empennage kit this fall. I just wanted to know what else I need to plan during this time. For example do I have to make the decision on which autopilot I'm going to want now so that I can get the appropriate servos?
I'm hoping to budget in attending some kind of workshop between now and then to get familiar and confident with the abilites I'm going to need to assemble the aircraft. I am definatley going to take George and Becki Orndorff's sheet metal class since I am only a couple of towns over from them (Krum.) If anybody has taken their class please let me know your thoughts.
To make matters worse I am just starting my flight training. Has anybody else been building before they were even rated?????
This was a dream that my father and I shared for years but he lost his eye sight before he could start on his project and since I'm coming up on the one year of my dad's passing I want to do this for both of us. I still can't wipe the grin off my face from a couple months back when I first got to fly an airplane. I had worked on my soaring ticket as a kid but this was unreal. Sorry droning on but figured I need to introduce myself along with the questions.
Thanks!
