Basically, we’re two guys in our late 20’s who have never built anything remotely close to an airplane, but have a crazy desire to. We’ll be learning everything as we go along, so we figured we’d share it all with you so you can see exactly what it takes to build an airplane and fulfill a dream.
Here’s a little more about each of us…
