Default RE: Kit Building

Ruthiesea, I also like the idea of you building, but as said above, you need to work up to a P61. What you might do is after getting your "wings", get something like a Ugly Stick and modify it by moving the engines to the wings and learn from there. While you're learning to fly a twin, build more planes and work your way up to the advanced kits so you will be able to build the Black Widow. I myself have plans for a 68" span Pitt's Model 12 as well as 70"+ spanned Edge, Katana, and Extra 300S sitting on the shelf waiting to be built. Since these four gassers are over my head as well, I'm just holding off TILL I CAN BUILD THEM PROPERLY before I start.
