Default builders' remorse?

Real Good question and the advice/tips above are real good. I wrote an
article for my EAA Chapter on the plane I chose and how I got to that
decision:

http://www.eaa279.org/newsletter/mar06.pdf

Click on that link or paste it in your browser if it doesn't highlight
and scroll to the end of the newsletter. I chose to build a Bushcaddy
R-120 for the reasons outlined in my report and did a ton of research
beforehand including visiting the factory and flying one. I am one
year and 414 hours into it. I love building it and my wife and family
are very supportive. The tech support from Bushcaddy is fabulous and I
wouldn't change anything at this point. You have to commit yourself to
it and that means choosing the right time in your life to start
buuilding. It is important to be peristent, try to do something every
day, even if it's clean up the shop. Contact me if you have questions.

Lynne and Barnaby and I know each other for many years at Oshkosh.

The Wainfans have worked very hard for many decades, writing books and
information articles in many magazines. They give some very excellent
EAA Forums at Oshkosh. When you view the people at their forums,
you will see many well known Airfoil and Aircraft Design Engineers in
attendance.

I always bug them, to have some one gather all their past articles and
put them in a book.

Just my thanks to the Wainfans for all the time they spend, sharing
their knowledge and
experience, with us.

So, send them the tips you have experienced over the many years on your
aircraft.
