I'm in the same situation as you ! Just received the empennage last week. It's my first week-end of work and I really like it.. For now, I have fun to debur the parts, don't know if I will say the same thing at the end !!
Happy building !

Joe,
I can still remember the excitment when my empenge kit came in 12/15/98! I hope your progress is faster but it is well worth it! We have about 128.8 hours on it. Weather permitting we will get a few more before 12/31/10. The weather tomorrow will mean more snow blowing before we can fly on Wednesday! Merry Christmas to All and May God Bless you in your Building and flying in 2011

Joe,
Great picture! In a couple of weeks here, it will be 4 years since I picked up my empennage kit and got started. It's a moment you never forget.
I especially like your best friend sitting there, licking his chops. I'll bet he can't wait to spend hours in the shop with you "helping" you along.

Joe,
That dog sure looks like he's hungry to get started on the box for ya
.
Not sure how much help he'll be for inventory though.

Sorry guys the budget is to tight to be feeding Caliber airplane parts. She is a great dog and by far the smartest one I have ever owned.
