Elad, Sorry you missed the flyin.
You're not the first person I've heard say that about their job. At some places, the more work you do, the more they give you to do. Somehow they forget the compensation part.
If you decide to build a kit, I'll repeat myself about the TigerII. It's a good airplane that flies very well. I wouldn't go any smaller, because, in my opinion, larger planes fly better. The instructions will lead you through the construction process step by step, with a well illustrated manual. The kit has interlocking parts, making assembly easy. Sincraft has taken on a much more difficult project than this will be. If you were to build the Tiger, I'd bet you could frame it up in a couple of weekends. I framed my first kit (Eagle) in three days. The two planes have very similar construction.
I hope you don't leave the hobby. To me, it's one of the most rewarding things I've ever been involved in. The satisfaction derived from building and flying a craft that you built yourself is impossible to describe.
Keep your chin up. Don't let work get you down. Do what I do after a rough day at work. Come home, and do something related to this great hobby!
