Funny how I have had a year and a half to ask questions, but one the actual rubber meets the road and the wood chips start flyin', I get questions. What are you using to document your build? I know there are websites, but I forget which they are, and if they are better than starting your own. I have seen www.mywoodenairplane.com and the guy building that plane is a programmer and wrote the code for himself, so, not for sale....but I like his site. I want to document the build on line to share ideas and the build, and hopefully encourage others as I was encouraged whilst on the sidelines. Any and all options appreciated! Mark

All of your data is stored in a local database file on your PC for safe keeping. Additionally, Kitlog provides a lifetime free service that allows you to upload your project progress to a personal website. You can upload each time you locally add a log entry or once a month. What ever you like. You can browse the many projects currently on Kitlog here: I documented the complete build of my Van's RV-8 using Kitlog and can't imagine doing it any other way. Here is a link to my RV-8 website provided courtesy of Kitlog's service: The FAA inspector loved my documentation for my inspection. Family and friends liked being able to keep up to date on my progress, too. Its the best $49 you'll spend on your project.

    Attaboy, Matt! Looks like I need to start prepping Karen for me flying the Pietenpol to Brodhead again. I just got it back from the Lynchburg Airshow, and other than an idiot walking into the trailing edge of the wing and putting a big dent in it, it went fine. If you cruise at 75, you might not want to fly with me to Brodhead. Mine gets about 68 or so.

    I'm agreeing with Matt... Kitlog Pro is great... not to mention that he is the guy that keeps this site alive. It is super easy to update or add photos and it prints out nicely. There are also forms for keeping track of expenses, vendors, helpers, etc. You can view my log at the link in my signature. I've looked at several other programs and I like this one the best. -------- Mark Chouinard Wings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on Fuselage Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=340633#340633

    I know I must sound like a detail-dumb guy, but one of the things I have loved about the West Coast Piet site is the pics and such. I have enjoyed pouring over the pics of others builds, and have seen other aircraft design s who's builders have documented the build with detail over the web, and that sharing with pics has been helpful. Never paid much attention to the software and such at the time, as it was still 'off in the distance' for my start. Anyway, when your pencil and paper crashes, I guess you re-sharpen it... Something to be said for the solid way of doing things. Frankly, I hadn't thought of that option yet!

    Thanks Matt: That's exactly the feedback I was looking for. I would prefer to do all you mentioned: Receipts, pics, time, etc. in one place. I will definatly go find it and have a look. I switched to Mac 2 years ago, and can run PC too, but would really prefer a Mac solution, but THAT's asking way too much I know! Thanks again for the feedback.
