Anyone have any experience with kit-build aircraft? I am considering starting a project building an RV-8. If anyone has any experience with homebuilts i would LOVE to hear from you!

I know a guy at work that just finished a amphibious airplane.I'll see if he would give you some tips and send you his email address.

Hope this helps ya out bro.He is our maintenence manager and is really sharp and friendly guy.Like I said he just finished his aircraft and has a lot of experience in light aircraft.Its cool he launches down the boat ramp at his house and takes off from the lake an drives right up into his hangar
