I've been looking at starting a Homebuilt project (either the RV-12 or Zodiac XL), however I will be honest. I have never built an aircraft before, and I'm not exactly a handyman. However, I've been considering home builts because I want an aircraft that is "mine", I want an aircraft that when people see it in the sky, they'll know that it's my aircraft.

However, right now I don't really have any confidence in my ability to build an airworthiness aircraft without a ton of help from more experienced builders. A part of me wish Vans or Zenith offered one of those Two Weeks To Taxi program that Glasair offers.

Has any other homebuilders ever experienced this, and how did you get over it?

and apparently I have put this in the wrong place. Can anyone move this to the appropriate forum please?
