Yea.. I love the RV's they are a Nice airplane and I deal with them a lot. But I just like composite aircraft. I was all set to go RV until I found the Cozy. Not to mention, with a new member to my family I need the extra seat. I guess the big problem with building composites in Oregon is the heck of a Heating bill you need to get the Epoxy to flow. Taking 1000+ more hours isn't a big deal for me. I am going to enjoy build. In the mean time.. I will fly Cessna's and Pipers.

Thanks Steve! Sometimes I am up that direction for work. I have a plant that is south of Tacoma about 20 minutes which I go to on occasion. What part are you currently working on?

Hello, I am new to the Forums. I have been planning on building my own plane for several years now. I love the Canard design, but am a little unsure of the difficulty in assembling such a fine aircraft using composites. Until recently I had my heart set on a Vans RV9A, but then I ran across a Cozy Mark IV which fits my mission profile much better. (4-place fast X-country sucker of doom) I have recently moved out of my large house with itsy-bitsy garage in favor of a itsy-bitsy house with a HUGE shop specifically for the purpose of building an airplane. Soo.. I am in the process of getting my shop ready to start the build. I plan on purchasing my plans this month and start with the "Pre-build" stuff. But. In the mean time. Is there someone in the Portland-Salem-Yamhill area who is currently building and wouldn't mind some help? Thanks,
