Just signed on and wanted to get an opinion on something perhaps even from others that have gone through something similar.
I have been thinking of building an RV9 for some time now and lurking here. I own an airplane already but would most likely at some logical point of the build have to sell it in order to purchase the more expensive bits (avionics/Engine). I took a builders workshop and liked it but do see the amazing amount of work that will be involved.
My dilemma:
I am most likely going to be going through a divorce in the next year or so.
What I was thinking is that having a project such as this would allow me to focus on something other than problems, even though I do see that some people slow down or stop their projects when going through this.
Have others been through something like this and did they find that the RV project was a welcome distraction?
Logistics of course will be something I have to consider. I will have to buy another house with building space (garage). I was thinking of that anyways as I do have kids.
Thanks for your opinions.
