I am finally ready to take the plunge into a kit plane. I have narrowed my choices
to Harmon Rocket (#1) or an RV-7 (#2). But I still have concerns about how
much more work a Rocket is than an RV-7. I would like to visit some one building
a rocket to take a look and talk about what's involved.

Geez Brian.... You just missed out on a fabulous RV8 that sold up in
Quincy... And dude.... There is a big difference between a Rocket and a
7... Go for the Rocket..

Brian -
I've not seen the prefab completeness of an RV7 and really can't compare
the difference in work required, but have you taken a ride in John's
Rocket? There is really no comparison in performance. I'm using an old
old RV4 kit to convert to my Rocket which is a lot of head scratching
for a first time builder. Thankfully it is pretty well documented on
various websites where the differences in construction are. Of course,
there is the quickbuild F1 Rocket available also. Depends on bucks and
building time availabe, but you can have a Rocket . I personally will
never understand how a guy would choose to build an RV8 instead of a
Rocket. JBB

Brian,
Have you considered the F-1 Rocket? It is a quick build kit that is pretty
close to the Harmon Rocket. Mark Fredericks owns and operates the business
and does a great job at it. The F-1 would be my first choice.
