Hey guys,
Sorry for the newbie question. I'm still in the dreaming stage of my biplane build (Pitts S1). I was flying with someone the other day that is building a Skybolt D. He was telling me that building a Skybolt with a decent chunk of pre fab parts from places such as Steen is almost the same price as building an S1 with prefab parts from Steen, Griggs (Wolf) ect.
His argument was "Why not sacrifice a bit of performance to get a second seat for the same price?"
Thoughts?
I always thought a Skybolt build with the 540 would start to get pretty expensive.
Mostly curious.
Again sorry for the newbie questions.
Take care
