I do know something about aircraft construction...

A few years ago, when we lived in Arkansas, I actually had a house with a shop and the room to do some hobby stuff.  I spent about two months cleaning up the shop and putting in new lights and drywall. Painting the walls and floor.  And building workbenches and shelves.

Then I ordered the tail kit for my favorite homebuilt airplane.  A Van's RV-7.  Not a 7A.  A RV-7.  Anybody can fly a plane with a nosewheel, but REAL men fly taildraggers!!!  LOL  As part of the requirements that the FAA has about amature built airplanes is that the builder must document the building process in such a way as to prove that THEY did at least 51% of the work.  I chose to document my construction on a web page.  Here it is...http://websites.expercraft.com/larryt/
