Default Thinking about a Vailley kit

I quit building kits quite a while ago because I had no time for it, lots of travel for work and such.. Now I have changed industries and I don't travel anymore

How difficult is the Vailley Aviation FW-190 to build?(90 inch), I am an experienced builder but I haven't built a kit in years. I want a large FW-190 because they fly great and look great and I have been told that the Vailley kit is one of the best.

Any thoughts about the skill requirements to build this kit?

It's not tough to build, I bought the 90" plans, but be carefull when buying a wood kit. If your building the wood fuslage, the wing is different than when you use the epoxyglass fuslage. It's a really nice bird when done thou, roy told me at the WRAM show to use the built in cooling fan spinner, otherwise it will overheat the twin 80cc engine.
