Welcome and get ready. There's a lot in store for you in the coming months
but you are not alone. You will not believe the sheer quantity of help you
will receive from this email list.

Greetings Everyone!!



My name is Craig Walls. My wife and I just purchased Rebel #207 (still in
the box!). We are very excited about the prospect of building our own
plane. I'm also at the midpoint in getting my private pilot license and
hope to finish by the end of October. I have already met Bob P. on the
phone and he was very helpful in making the decision to buy. I spent the
day unloading, stocking shelves, making space, etc. What fun!



Anyhow, I look forward to being a part of the group. Craig

Welcome aboard, Craig !

You're in a good group now ! Just ask your questions,
as you come to things -- much better to ask early than have
to re-do something later !! :-)

It's a good idea to check the photos in FILES (see below),
for any mods that might apply to parts as you go - there
are a couple of doublers in the ends of the elevators,
for example ... You can also do keyword searches of
the emails in the ARCHIVES - in case there are no pics.

Have fun !!! And ..... "Get it flying !!" ;-)

Welcome to our world Craig :-)

You'll have a great time building I'm sure, just work through it bit by bit
and it's finished when it's finished !

We are in Chickaloon, Alaska. It's about 75 mi N of Anchorage. Are you
building or have you already built?

By all means get your wife involved with all aspects of the building
beginnining with the inventory. Surest way to minimize friction at home
regarding costs and shop time. Enjoy the build, try to do something every
day but know when to walk away for a bit. In the future you will look back
with amazement at what you've learned. Get a copy of 43.13b which is the
bible for construction and repair.

Also try to avoid drilling holes in her fingers when you're building the
