I agree that the fuse has much more to do and will keep you busy for a long
time...but down side=2C you will be spending a lot more money on all the s
tuff you will be doing.

Can anyone see a reason why I couldn't complete the fuse kit before the win
gs?
I was planning on going with the wings next but with the economic uncertai
nty ahead of us=2C I'm thinking a fuse kit might be a better option.
If I purchase QB wings=2C I would probably be ready for the fuse purchase i
n a few months. If I bought a fuse=2C I could keep busy for a longer perio
d of time (On meaningful projects) while the economy has more time to recov
er. I could:
1) Finish the fuse kit.
2) Join it to the tail cone.
3) Fit the canopy area.
4) Run systems for fuel=2C static=2C control systems=2C etc.
5) Run wiring
6) Setup ELT's=2C etc=2C etc=2C etc.
The more I think about it=2C the more I think a fuse kit makes better sense
at this time. Especially if you're wanting to burn time on meaningful tas
ks=2C instead of burning time waiting for the economy to recover while your
completed wings sit in the cradle.
Thoughts on doing a fuse kit before the wings???
