With A builder you are going to end up with A plane that has real wood and glue, something that can last for years and not just A season. Nothing wrong with getting someone to build for you. I used to do A lot of kit building and ARF assembling for people just A few years ago. I could unserstand someone not having the time to learn to build but the retired guys having me assemble an ARF trainer for them??? Reason usually stated, I don't have the time!! I took there money and laughed! Most clubs have A builder or two left that will build A kit for A small fee plus parts and supplies used. I gave it up due to the price of shipping an assembled model and most of my customers are out of state now.
