Campbell" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: New Guy I recommend that you start from scratch unless you are in a BIG hurry to get in the air. If you buy an already started project you will probably spend a lot of time saying "If I had done this, I would have done it differently." My two cents.

The build quality of the completed parts on my Piet is very good, but I have spent a lot of time scratching my head and wondering why some corners were cut and then getting everything the way I want it. So, if you decide on a project, look very closely at build quality and decide if you can live with, or fix those things that aren't to your liking. I'm sure that in the end us project rescue guys will save some money and maybe get in the air quicker, but there will never be that full satisfaction of building the whole plane. I kind of look at it as continuing someone else's dream while mostly realizing my own at the same time. Welcome to the group. It, along with the westcoastpiet.com website are the best resources you will find to aid you in your build.

It's great to have a place to go to get some feel for how all this stuff works. It will be a great experience either way it ends up that's for sure. Always open to any guidance I can get so keep it coming.
