I pulled the Speedster project out to get some current pics for the build log. As you can see there's lots of loose ends all over the place. I stopped the paint/stripe process because I wasn't particularly pleased with the outcome. I still haven't settled on a paint scheme.
Here's a brief milestone report.
FWB 100%
FWF 95%, next task is test run the engine, 80hp rotax
Paint and stripe 75%
Bubble doors 100%
My plan is to put this through the Airworthiness inspection as soon as possible and continue to add accessories such as radio/transponder during the flyoff period. This is my first attempt at building a whole airplane and it seems that this has exceeded my attention span by at least 250 hours.
At this time my build log shows around 850 hours and I'm under $20K but not by much.
