I was going to build an RV-4, until I remembered I suck at sheet metal. If it's a flat piece I can generally get by, but if there's a bend all bets are off. That's why I decided to build a KR instead. I have no idea how I'd get these huge hands of mine into various parts to buck the rivets. > And Jack, I have looked for land with a large enough flat spot for a > runway but in KY that is a rare find!! A few weeks ago I watched a couple of guys, one in an RV-4, the other in a -6, take off into a fairly good bit of wind (15 gusting to 20 if I remember right). I think their takeoff rolls were measured in inches ;) I was in the right seat of a Navion and it took a bit more room. -- Steve N205FT mystic...@swbell.net He who seeks will find, and he who knocks will be let in.
