build times
Posted: Sun Feb 19, 2012 11:16 am
Guys,
Last week folks were discussing building times. As I
was away from home I apologize for the late reply.
Here is the breakdown for Super Rebel #131:
Tail and wing kit total (complete kit, NOT
fastbuild):650 hours
Fast build fuselage 165 hours and still going - Doors,
windows, interior gussets, floor, and baggage area so
far.
Here are some breakdowns for individual components:
Horz stab = 49 hours
Elevator = 91 hours
Rudder 22 hours
Vertical stabilizer = 26 hours
Flaps = 33 hours
Ailerons = 47 hours
Wings = remaining not listed above
I laugh because each step in the building process
typically took very little time. Then the dreaded
step:
"Disassemble, dubur, chromate, and rivet together."
That step usually involved many hours!!!
-Jason
