I have my 9A ready for first flight now (won't happen for a couple weeks due to family commitments), but my total actual hours spent in the process of building it were logged pretty carefully and I came up to 1891 hours. Admittedly I added some mods that took up a lot of extra time, notably the extended range Tuckey-style outboard wing tanks, a full glass panel that I wired entirely myself, all-electric fuel system, a few other items as well. I think I probably added 150 realistic hours on those mods over a "stock" build.
Just one data point, wondering where others have fallen, if you've even kept track.
