Replica project poll
There seems to be a lot of projects going on and several folks interested in starting projects. I'm curious... just what are we building or considering to build?

You can check more than one block... for instance: if you are just considering building a replica, you can check both kit and plans if you are not sure which way you are thinking about going. In the end it should tell a story about you.

Thanks!

Rob

I'm building a Graham Lee N17 full size.
Tail is done, fuselage looks like a cage.
I'm in no hurry because my previous project has been flying for 450 hours now, and the weather is still good!

I'm currently building a Graham Lee 7/8 scale Siemens-Schuckert DI. Fuselage, tailfeathers, lower wings done. Rear cabanes, center section (a mod of the plans for the SS DI mod) and gear next.

I keep getting distracted with other ideas though...

I am leaning heavily tward Graham Lee's N12. I like the idea of a two seater for my wife and I to both enjoy. As this is my first project I also like the large amount of info on the project that is availible on the net. After that one though...I would really like to try a DVII full scale.

I have delusions of finishing a SPAD 7 with a Wright Martin Hisso. The engine is its own project. I intend to build the airframe as it was originally constructed.

If there are any Hisso experts out there, please contact me.
