    20+ years ago, I helped on a heavy maintenance check on this plane, when it was still flying. Nice to see that it wasn't cut up to be used as scrap metal!

You must have learned a lot from his tips and examples. The photos are also impressive, they demonstrate the quality and beauty of the sheds. The book itself is also well-made, with glossy, thick paper and a soft cover that is pleasant to touch. This book is a wonderful choice. blush

      Nah, I’m gonna say this was probably the dumbest way to spend your hard earned money. $800,000 for 700 sq ft of narrow space in a useless airplane. And the work that was done to it for the price was between mediocre and horrible. Would’ve made more sense to build a second home and purchase a 2nd small plane for training purposes.

    What a passion project! Some missed opportunities in terms of interior design I feel. Could have been more aero themed as it was standard design inside. The seating area could have had first class couches facing a wall with the tv and a fold down shelf on the wall. Doorbell switch could have been the "call attendant" button. They should have had one of those attendant carts as a mobile bar!
