Hello, everyone. I'm a new member from central Indiana. A couple of years ago I got my hands on some old copies of Kitplanes magazine, which dredged up childhood memories of watching jets go by overhead and wishing I wasn't earthbound. I might be a bit ahead of myself here since I haven't got my PPL yet due to Covid hitting almost immediately after I got my 3rd class medical, but I've found myself spending enough time lurking the forums that it seemed reasonable to register. I don't have a project yet either, as I'm still trying to decide which aircraft suits my mission. Here's hoping that by the time I finish my license I'll have settled on a design. Certificated aircraft prices only seem to be going up, and I'd prefer not to rent indefinitely. There's a non-zero chance I'll end up with a CH650 behind a Corvair engine, but that's just the latest in a long list of often contradictory possibilities (e.g., RV-9, Murphy Rebel, Long-EZ, KR-2S, Hummel H5).
