What ussually happens with such projects- the money runs dry....

All aviaition endeavours are horribly expensive and, whilst this one is not megabucks, its enough to allow only 'luxury' funds to fuel it. Not been many luxury funds about on the last couple of years...

Yep, its hangared at Panorama, has been for the past couple of years- with the BMW engine. I intend bringing it back home to my workshop in the next few weeks and may work on it later at my own cost to see if I can get it flying...

I'll do that when I get around to it; it was an interesting project- I'd like to see it finished..
