I would like to hear from folks who have at least 4 or more years on their vinyl wrapped plane. How is it holding up? Would you do it again? What brand of wrap? Where did you buy it? …Continue

I appreciate your comment, I attempt to document this unique experience as a novice builder and I continually learn from my mistakes and from others. I have only been at it since first Zenith class in 10/16. But it truly is educational, recreational and of course humbling. My EAA tech advisor told me that at least it keeps him out of the tavern.

Charlie, I accidentally clicked the ignore button on your message. I think I added you now though.
Anyways, I helped with the 750 STOL build but not the Cruzer so I dont think I can weigh in on that part! Feel free to email me at kvoltz@eaa.org
It wasn't bad, I filled out the appropriate paperwork and submitted it and it went pretty smooth from there. They look at the coordinates and verify that it wont be a navigation hazard to other airports and such. The only issue I did have was with the lady who made the initial contact via phone, she obviously didn't want to deal with it. I used the garmin in the plane for the lat long coordinates and she was pretty rude about that, wasn't acceptable to her and pretty much called me a dumbass. She changed the numbers to what she said they should be, rounded them off, and now the field shows up across the river a few hundred yards away but its no big deal. I still have the forms and paperwork so when you get ready I'll dig them out so you'll know what you need.
give me a shout if I can be of any help. Stop by and visit sometime if you're ever in the area. 12WV is the identifier at my farm fieled.
