My Sling TSi Airplane Build Walkaround Video
Many on here know I've taken a time out on car builds and am building an airplane. Really interesting project so far which I'm enjoying a lot. Surprising number of similarities to a Factory Five build. Discussions among builders about upgrades, backordered parts, errors in the manual, builders posting questions that are explained in the manual (
), etc. But obviously a lot of differences too. No discussion about too many Clecos. More like I have multiple hundreds and still run out. No discussions about pulling rivets by hand. I don't have a count. But thousands. And the Factory Five .040 thick aluminum seems heavy duty in comparison. The airplane is mostly .018 and .020 thick.
Anyway, today I did a walkaround video that maybe some will find interesting. BTW, still checking the forum daily (or more), posting, and answering PM's.
