Inspirational story of a build

@ChemGuy mentioned in flight following that he bought a vmax. I started a little research because it looked like so much fun....

Then I came across the build log of "bigbrixx" above.

This is a guy who only built and flew RC planes (even RC Jets).

He got his LSP, and his PPL and taildragger endorsement... And, lost like 300 lbs, so that he could fly his project. He even bought a share of a Piper...

35pages of build log, weight loss log, travel log, and first flights...

I thoroughly enjoyed it... You may as well.

Sometimes that happens... But it's worth the wait... I think it's a small bbs... And has some server issues.

Was that page 36?

I just clicked on the link above... And it took me to the first page of the board post of the build log.. about 20 posts per page... 35 pages.
