Hi,
Anyone have a idea (about) how long it takes to build one of these ?

Dave,
Once upon a time I built a Bridi Big Birdie, I couldn't resist the ad
for it with the the bikini clad lovely holding one...don't remember how long it
took me, it was my second plane. Next project was an Aquila Grande', the ad
was quite a let down, a mustachioed Skip Miller..., but I did tally my hours
when I built it and they totaled up to 120 hours. I meticulously used aliphatic
resin and slow cure epoxy on everything, I didn't "believe" in hot stuff for
spars and wings back then. The little lady was on vacation and I was only
working 8 hour days back then...I built that sucker right on the kitchen table!
(no
pickup or cleanup required!) Just thought I'd give you a data point for a
built up plane, though it did sport a fiberglass fuse...
