After 13 years of very intermittent flying due to budget crunch, I have decided to eliminate the middle man. The primary cost of ownership (in my biased opinion) is the maintenance cost. I.E. annuals etc. So-o-o- I'm building one. Type and cost can vary to suit desired flying habits. (Often & cheap) Planned investment for me is ceiling of $8k. As builder, you can do all your own maintenance, annuals, etc. and you need not use approved (read expensive) aviation parts such as engine, lights et. all. My choice has folding wings which permit easy ?? trailering to eliminate hanger or tie-down rental. For further info contact nearest EAA chapter. ---(x)--- Tom Lester via ihnp4!cbnap
