OK guys, here is the real story. That rebel fuselage was the last item to
come to us from a different shop than the one still operating (very
successfully) and which built yours Scott. They have 9 Moose (plus an RV-10
and a bunch of other stuff) on order, and offer builder assist after the
Fast Build stage to turn key.
The same shop which built this Rebel built an Elite and a Maverick for us,
which were not too bad, so I guess the rookies were thrown at this bit. No
idea why it was decided to take it to a show.

Apparently they are not in an agreement with them anymore. I believe Daryl
& Bob P both said that MAC was attempting to do most or all of the work in
house now. The rivets were covered with smiles's, half-moons and some
pretty unfinished parts before riveting. Their comments, not mine!

Paul, we are curious as to what was wrong with the fast built riveting? I
spent some time in a salvage yard sitting in gutted Cessna's, decided our
"Philippine riveting" was perfect compared to them. I do believe they
have
different workers now than when ours was built.

MAC had the Moose on the line, a Renegade, JDM and the sorry looking
'Philippine riveted' Rebel fuselage with the Rotec radial on display. I
don'
t buck a lot of rivets but if that was my display I probably would have
covered the fuselage with a tarp! Wish the radial had a lot of hours on
it
before I chose a Subaru. Nice looking engine.
No pictures as the battery on the Sony digital went south at the Splash In
on Friday.
