Since I've already had a partial kit in my garage, my web time dramatically increased on the VAF website. They have an excellent Classified section. I found a good deal on a just started RV-7 tail kit and RV tool kit. The price was right and the Seller was easy to work with, so I committed to the deal.
The seller, Jeff, drove all the way from Mid-Texas and delivered it to my home on Jan 1st, 2008. What a way to start the New Years. I must say that its been my experience in Aviation since 1995 when I first started to fly that fellow Aviators will treat you kindly, honestly, and are very trusting. I hadn't even sent Jeff a deposit, and he agreed to drive out the kit for me. Thanks Jeff!
Pic 1 shows some parts of the kit, some of my new tools, bench and work area.
Pic 2 shows me doing the mandatory reading of the build binder, blue prints, and Jeff's construction log.
I still have to organize my tools. I want to have aviation tools only on the workshop side of my garage, and general garage tools on the other side. I need to setup my compressor for easier air delivery that won't have me tripping over the hose as I build.
