  1. Great feedback, Kent. Thank you. I guess I'm chomping at the bit to fulfill that childhood dream. Hopefully I can buy and sell a Cessna or similar to build hours, then transition.
  2. Greetings! I've loved Rutan plane designs since I was a kid, but I've only ever flown under Part 103 (powered parachutes). My 17 year old son and I are now beginning ground school and I'm thinking forward to possibly purchasing a plane for our solo hours, which may be more cost-effective. Would be unwise for a rookie pilot to build hours in a Varieze or similar? I assume we'd have to do our inital time in Cessnas, but do you think it is even possible to transition to a canard that early? Don't know if a CFI would even set foot in one. My gut says I'm stuck having to buy a Cessna, if anything, and get a canard later. Any thoughts on this?
