Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Talkers and doersIt is true that you see a lot of projects for sale in the "almost finished" category. You wouldn't think that it would take 2, 3, or 4 years of work for someone to discover that an aircraft is too much work. I think a lot of peoplejust like to build things, and then when the reality really hits them that theyare really going to have to fly this thing then they loose interest. (Especially people who have not learned to fly prior to building).Rick HollandLarry---some people have valid excuses for not following thru and finishing an airplane project and to me that's just fine. It's the other flash-in-the-pan types who get so hyped up and hot about building then come to find out it actually takes hard work, creative thinking, money, time, and sacrifice, and then they bail out. ________________________________________________________________________________Date: Thu, 6 Nov 2003 07:27:45 -0800 (PST)
