progress on CH-750 at Cloverdale

I am two weeks into working on a quick build kit at Quality Sport Planes in Cloverdale CA.  I continue to be very pleased with the help I receive and with availabilty of special tools and knowledge of Doug.  Every day I get more done and am getting closer to the point where I can move  the project to Alaska to install the engine.  I recommend this company to anyone who may want to keep things moving along on their project.

getting started on my quick build 750

I have spent the last week at Quality Sport Planes in Cloverdale CA working on my 750.  It has been a great week with Doug giving me just the right amount of advice.  I will be here for another month working on the project before trailering it north to Fairbanks Alaska to put the engine on.  I am very happy working on the project here in Cloverdale.
