I received my kit in the Spring of 1988 so I assume my manual was one of the earlier versions. I did bend the ear of Ross and Don at Oshkosh and Sun n Fun but I did not call the factory once for advice or guidance. (Most of the discussions with Ross & Don were about some mods I intended to make) Sometimes when I read about all the phone calls, I wonder if I really screwed up somewhere and should ground my aircraft..... In fact, after reading the manual at the Oshkosh booth in 1987, I decided that I could in fact build this aircraft. I had previously narrowed it down to Lancair vs Glassair. Plus the Lancair folks seemed much more friendly when I walked up to their booth. Thanks, Linda! My humble advice for Mr Joe is "stay the course". Earl LCN2 N233EE
