Hiya guys - saw this post by accident, but there's only one gent on these threads I know who makes some sort of living from building planes, mainly electric (all sorts, even EDF), and thats "Airborne In Japan" from the Baddius Club thread - he's a regular. He does live in Japan but is English by birth, married to a lovely japanese wife and has 2 adorable kids. Building shed - put beds in it and let it out!! He won't be a millionaire on building but he makes enough, but he gets the pleasure of building. Hope this helps....gotta go now, planes to crash and build...or is it the other way around....??
