    I think that it used to be a high number (but I'm not convinced it 

was 90%), but with today's pre-punched kits, things go together a lot 

easier.  The kit may not be completed by the original purchaser, but I 

think we are seeing a much higher completion rate of kit airplanes today 

than we did 10 years ago, even if the kit changes hands a couple of times.



    I'm in the process of selling my flying Glasair 1 FT in order to 

devote my time and money to completing the Sportsman kit.  I might be 

nuts, but I know I can't afford both, and the Sportsman represents the 

type of flying I want to do compared to the Glasair, FWIW.
