Building the Bonnie is STILL a headache but more so from the kit cutters side, although I still don't particularly like Hostetler's plans as they are not cross referenced to each other (wing to fuselage etc.)
Hosteler definitely has his little quirks but in his defense I haven't seen a prefect plan yet including my own. In many ways the designers like Wendel are victims of their own success, they get to the point the use the same techniques on every design. A given technique work on the previous plans so why deviate, don't fix what isn't broken. You see that a lot in the wing spars, if a design has a big success with a "D" box system on his wing every design will have a "D" box. If his big success uses a shaped plywood spar with a slot system for the ribs each design following will have the same.
