Brett,Here's my two cents. The way I understand it , the GN-1 was aquicker/easier way to get a plane built, back in the days when J3 Cubs werevery plentiful and cheap. Guess they were laying around most airports indisrepair. You could get them for a song and cannibalize the parts thatwere time consuming to build. Today is a different story. You'd be crazyto chop up a Cub that could be sold for $15,000-$50,000.Depends how far along in the project you are. The jig board, you can reusethe board and all the blocks.In my opinion,,,build the Aircamper.waltNX140DL (new today)----- Original Message -----
