I understand everyone's point about not going it alone. I've been really thinking about it since reading everyone's posts. However, I simply started this post to see what everyone thought of my first build/covering job. NOT to get a lecture on how, when, and where to fly my first plane. If that would have been the case, I would have started the thread that way. Don't get me wrong, I'm not a cocky guy thinking I can do anything by myself and I may not go through with it that way, but please don't expect that my first flying experience will go the way your first flying experience did. By the way, I do have lots of experience on a simulator. I know that's not the real thing, but I believe it's a start.
