This is about 60 miles west of me, seems like $75,000 might be about twice what one could do it for without their help. But I suppose if a person wants a 750 and does not feel confident to do it themselves even with all the free help available from the company, and right here of course. Or if they got more many than time. They say about 8 days work time for the customer.

I think I'd just build one at home until I got to where the wings need to go on and then take it to a local airport to finish the job. Being I'm already familiar with metal fabrication, engine work, electronics and wiring, etc.
Eventually I will have my own short airstrip, but it'll be only for very short field capable airplanes. I have one shelf on the side of our mountain with about 500 ft fairly level where I could clear off one end down slope to come in almost level. And a deep valley field I rent for hay with the possibility of around 900 ft field length between trees.
