I am building a -10 i curently have a -7
my emp kit tail cone is almost done i have been going slow at this and enjoying the building process
the problem is with the ways things are it is much harder to find all the money to buy the next kits and when you do get the kits many of the parts you get will hang around the shop for some time before you need them in my case i already know that this will be a very slow build
Does it make any sense to buy some of the fuse parts and buy/build as i need a $14 k fuse kit can be broken down into several more afforable peices and as i need them
Would it cost more this way ????
A few years ago a -6 landed long on a short runway and wipedout his right wing no fuse damage pilot ok ,he asked me to fix it( he was not the builder) i bought the plans and orded the parts for the wing one by one
if you added the cost of the parts for a complete wing including spar and compared it to a 6 wing kit and cut in in half it was still cheaper for me to buy the parts one by one
