Hey Elliot, thanks for the info. I looked through the kit over the weekend and I am pleasantly surprised! The quality of the wood is very good and I might add that there is a LOT of wood there to look at. Yes, this kit is for the experienced builders out there, but I beleive that anyone who has built a kit other than an ARF should be able to get through this one with no problem. It is a BIG plane and I am considering a trade for something smaller at this time. If no deals are made, I will build it anyway. Maybe by the time I have it complete, I will have a semi to haul it in! LOL
