does anyone have experience with the ragwing RW1 Ultra-piet? I love the era and era type machines of the 20s 30s and 40s so a peit would be great, is the cost savings between the ragwing piet and a real pietenpol be enough to justify giving up the 2nd seat.

I've used the wood dimensions and the aircraft spruce online catalog to price the fuslage materials and the ragwing is a about half the costs, and the engine can be a lot cheaper too.

I would love to hear from someone with experience with both, I do have a little time in a pietenpol so if the RW has that feel for a fraction of the cost I'd be happy.

I do have the Ragwing plans and think I can get it put together with a few questions.
