Ron, thanks for your reply. I was wondering if you used their 2 week builder
assist program with your ES and how your experience has been so far.
Thanks...

Charles
I was the first one to go to the builders assist program for the ES. I went
for one week. during that week I closed my wings, horizontal stab and
elevators. the time savings in not having to build those jigs is well worth
it. It saves hundreds of hours of work. I definitely recommend the 2 weeks
at the factory. I started my kit in July of 01 and have aprox 2k hours on
it. there is probably a thousand hours left. I bought every fast build
option available at the time. I could probably cut a third of that time if I
had to do it again. It takes a while to get good at doing the composite
work. I took a weekend sportair class on doing composite work in griffin
Georgia. I would recommend taking a similar course before the two week
builders assist.
I wanted to build this plane and have enjoy doing it. All I can say is make
sure that you and your family are prepared for the time commitment required.
I have pictures of the work from the builders assist program. if you want
them I can email some of them to you.
Good luck
Ron
