Very nice, I have built several planes from Steve's designs and he does a top notch job. My favorite has been the super bandit. I'm looking at the plans trying to modify it to work as a FT Swappable. keep us posted on the maiden!

Not sure actually.. Id say about a week of evening to early morning work. (had to be after office hours). I'd generally get into the garage at about 8PM and out about 1AM ish...
