It’s official. I’m not just talking about it

[Star Keeper]

I picked up an empennage and fuselage kit yesterday and today. This is no longer just something I’m talking g about doing. I’ll either successfully build an airplane or fail at it. It took two trips to get everything and the hour ride home each time was stressful as hell. I don’t know how y’all do the cross country drives to pick up a secondhand kit.

Had the same questions when I bought a RV4 project that had been sitting for years. Completed. Now took on a RV8 project. Enjoy the challenge!

Looks good! I packed mine well and drove from Canada down to Pennsylvania.

Takes a bit to sort thru all the parts and get organized.

Good luck with the journey of the build.

Yep I’m sorting and inventorying now. All of the parts go into a dry storage and I wrote an inventory program to keep up with it all so I know where it is. I still need to get power and air installed in the shop. Trying not to get into it u til my shop is completely ready to go.

I think the quote you're looking for is "do or do not, there is no try."

Thanks for the correction, but that is MY quote. (copyright pending)
