I've done some researching on the prices for used aircraft vs a buying a kit, and I do realise you can purchase a used one for SIGNIFICANTLY cheaper. But the cost of maintaining will be less on a kit aircraft you build as you are the manufacturer of the aircraft, so you don't have to get it inspected every so often my a professional.

The thing I'm not trying to prioritize my flying passion over my education and future career. This is probably why my parents think I'm just crazy, even my dad who's an engineer himself that loves aviation. I planning: - Get my license for LSA or RPL - save up enough money (approx. 50,000 AUD) along side paying off everything else - buy a kit aircraft, maybe a vans rv-4 or Morgan Aeroworks Sierra 100 or Zenith CH650 - buying a kit is gonna save me a ton of cash in the long run so that's what I'm aiming at - build that aircraft over maybe 2-3 years - and fly that as much as possible over as long a period. PS. I want to get a 2 place aircraft so I can share the fun and experience with everyone

Hi Tony, I'm planning on doing training in the next few years, probably after I finish UNI (I'm only 16 rn). Studying towards aeronautical engineering, and I thought flying will be a fun way to pass time. Just trying to save some cash.

Where did you buy seats/upholstery?

Hello friends

Hi Kevin, Started reading through your construction for you beautiful Sierra 100. Just couple question I need answering if you don't mind. What tools were necessary and how much did it cost? What extra options were available when purchasing the kit and how much did that cost? Last question, where did you buy your electronics?
