I started this list just over 5 years ago now because I wanted to gather as
many of the "trade secrets" together as I could before I started my own
project. It's been an interesting progression watching the growth of shared
knowledge as to what were "necessary" mods to make the Rebel what everyone
seemed to want it is today.
The Super Rebel being availble for just over a year when the list started was
a virual unknown, but we are now at about the same point that the Rebel was
when the list started... There are more of them flying everyday, and those
flying are building more and more hours. For those already flying, there may
be some reverse engineering in your future, but I haven't heard of a Rebel
driver yet who got rid of his airplane because he thought the necessary
updates were beyond the value of their time.
There's one thing that I always tell people interested in the plane... it's
not perfect, the manual could use some work, but I've never heard of anybody
with a finished project who didn't absolutely love it! And compared to the
competition, I still think it's the best option in its category.
It was 10 years almost to the day from the first time I saw a Rebel, to the
day I picked my kit up at the factory. During that time there were a lot of
other kits that I got excited about when I discovered them... but when the
research was done, I always came back to Murphy.
