Well after 25 hours in the seat stretching over Sunday and Monday, I have a Q/B Fuse in the hanger. We got a quick tour of Vans but we were not alowed to go into the skunkworks. It is a very nice facility. Pretty impressive to see all of those Fuselages standing on end.
For anyone that has obtained a Q/B Fuse, did you find an oily coating all over the thing? Mine had this coating and all of the road dust was stuck to it. I would assume that if this is standard practice it would be due to the salt air on the trip back to the US.
There is an impressive amount of work done in the Q/B. My travel partners were two 6A owners. One built one of the old style kits and the other recently finished and had ordered a Q/B fuse. Even compared to the recently purchased 6A Fuse, this one has a considerable amount more done to it.
For anyone who is entertaining the question on Q/B or slow build, my reccomendation is to fork over the extra clams and go Q/B. Not only is it faster but the quality of the work is better that I could produce on my best day.
