Thanks for your reply. I checked out your site. Every time I sit and
start checking out other's planes, it makes me want one that much more.
Unfortunately, it'll be a while till I can even begin to consider actually
purchasing the plans and materials. (Full-time student, wife, 3 kids,
National Guard, etc ) Hopefully after I get outta school, I can get a
place with a nice big shop to work in. If you had to guesstimate, how
much $$$ do you have wrapped up in yer cozy, approx if you don't mind me
askin.

I'm the kinda guy who likes to try out new and different things; perhaps
that's why the cozy appeals to me. I am going to build my own fuel
injection system for my '79 Dodge Power Wagon. I would like to use a
different engine, just to try out my own ideas. Perhaps I could adapt my
EFI to work on any other engine I choose to use. Check out

I like the idea of having a plane that is functional. 200 mph 4-seater
appeals to me for that reason. I can't wait to get started.

1) can you read English?
2) do you know which end of a screwdriver to hold onto?

If the answer to both of these questions is "yes", then you have the
tools you need to build this plane. If you're an A&P (or soon will be)
then you're way ahead of the game. Composites are NOT difficult, if you
know how to mix a drink and cut with scissors.

This is really bad advice. You are qualifying idiots to build this high
performance airplane. Your hard sell might result in this experimenter
building an airplane that has too many deviations from plans. This is a
common problem in this newsgroup. Everybody is trying to sell someone on
something they want promoted regardless of safety.
