Hi all,
Slowly but steadily I try to get my ducks in a row.

like..

time to start - Jan. 2013 after moving to new location with big enough workspace
Money - cleared
Location - cleared
time to build - cleared
tools - almost cleared, decision about typ of aircompressor still pending
Typ of Aircraft - still pending, but more than likely Zenith 750, still have to accept the low cruise speed :)

and so on....

But isn't there anything else?

Membership of the EAA for e.g., is it mandatory or is it only an advantage?

Membership of a local EAA chapter?

What is with the official paperwork, isn't there any official paperwork to do, e.g. with the EAA or FAA, an application or something like that before you can start ?

I truly appreciate any advise!
Thanks,
Chris
