Hang in there Norman, I've just past 12 years and finally moved into a
hanger and hung the wings on my RV-6A this month.

Subject: Epic Riveting Day
Today was an epic day in my 13 year build. I pounded about 30 rivets
and the construction log says that hasn't happened since 2002. The bad
news came later when I discovered I hadn't dimpled the next row of
holes to their final size of screw so I had to drill everything out
again. Tomorrow I start even further behind as I will now shim it to
perfection at the bottom corners. This isn't starting off too good...

Guys C
6nbsp;
12 years build time C 13 years build time C it is what it is but I hope what happened to me does not happen to you E 6nbsp; I took me 6 years to build my RV6 E 6nbsp; Three months after completion I had a heart attack and a triple 6nbsp;by-pass surgery six months after that E 6nbsp; That was two years ago and I still have no medical E 6nbsp; However C the good news is today I saw a great AME 6nbsp;and believe I will be flying again real 6nbsp;soon E 6nbsp; So get to work before it is too late and you begin wishing you were building an LSA E 6nbsp; Besides C nothing flies 6nbsp;better than an RV E
