I can see that once my kids get to that 8 or 9 age mark (and up) the cash flow will probably be minimal. Hard to say at this point. Finances are always a tricky thing. I own a small business and do okay. I'm neither rich or poor at this point. However, I do have a lot of 'irons in the fire'. There could be the chance within the next year or two that I could get my licence. A few things have to fall into place before that'll happen. My oldest kid is 5, so I think I have a couple years before the real big expenses start rolling in. However, with the fact that I'm only 33, I feel this is what's going for me. I have already agreed with myself that this project will take many years to accomplish. I'm in no panic. I love to fly and go whenever I get the chance, however, I'm truly looking forward to the building portion of this project. I'm a true 'jack-of-all-trades' and come from a long line of the same. I love to build stuff. In many ways I often look forward to the build of any project rather than the final outcome. Looking forward to this. Cheers, Lyle Then you have the exact right mindset for being a homebuilder. |

If you want something relatively new, pretty good 2 seater performance,
reasonable cost, good plans and company support..... Look at the Sonnex (Sonex?) kit planes....I was researching this same topic a year or so ago....and I pretty much decided if I went the metal and rivits route that would be the plane I would build.... I think the RV series are probably BETTER planes.....but it looks to me like the Sonex would be cheaper and significantly faster to build.... take care Blll |
