Been reading the forum for a while, but this is my first post. I’ve always wanted to build an airplane, and have been a fan of the Skybolt for years. I finally got the plans for Christmas with the intent to start from scratch this year. Well, thanks to another builder who has had to give up his ‘bolt project, I now have a completed fuselage and tail feathers, wing kit (standard), gear, wheels, brakes, fuel tank, IO-540 and CS prop sitting in my garage.<?:namespace prefix = o ns = "urn:schemas-microsoft-com:eek:ffice:eek:ffice" />
Looks like once I get this stuff sorted out I’ll be disproving the old adage that there are no dumb questions. For now, this has bumped me a couple of years up on my build schedule, so I don’t even know what dumb questions to ask yet.
