Hi,

After thinking about it for 25 years I finally got my single engine land certificate. I am considering building an Acro Sport II. What advice would people who are or have built give to someone who is thinking about it. I really have enjoyed reading "Chris's long acrosport thread". Where can I go for information? How much does a typical build cost? What do insurance companies think of experimental aircraft. I don't see much of a web presence for builders compared to other aircraft. What if I get stuck? etc, etc.

My friends who fly are building RV's. I bought the preview plans for an RV-8 but, I have decided that it is not me. I like to be different.

Also, if anyone is interested I have a YouTube channel where I post my flying adventures in Southern Michigan: http://www.youtube.com/user/IFlyAnnArbor

Cheers,

David
