Thanks! It is actually the second plane I've built, but the first one was about 10 years ago, when I was 14. So while I am an engineer now, a 14-year-old is perfectly capable of building these. It just requires a lot of patience and measure-twice-cut-once rigor.

This build took me 5 months from start to finish, but that was at a very low duty cycle. I probably worked on it a couple hours a week on average. The great thing about a project like this is you can take however long you want, and even if you just have a few hours here and there your creation will eventually grow into an airplane. And that is an awesome feeling.
