Preview article about the One Week Wonder project in the May 2014 issue of EAA Sport Aviation Magazine:

At the Zenith Builders Banquet (as part of the annual 2013 Open Hangar Day activities), EAA's Charlie Becker (Director of Communities & Homebuilt Community Manager) spoke about the return of the One Week Wonder! project to AirVenture (Oshkosh) 2014.  This is the full poster:

Here's the hand-written message from Jack Pelton, EAA's chairman (and former CEO of Cessna):

We too are excited about this project!

The project is titled the "Return of..." because my father (Chris) already successfully completed an entire aircraft (from a kit) at Oshkosh in eight days way back in 1976. (While I was at Oshkosh that year I personally wasn't much help with the project because I was just eight years old at the time!)

Here's the article from archives of EAA Sport Aviation magazine:

• EAA Sport Aviation: October 1976

We'll be sharing more information about this ambitious project for AirVenture 2014, and as the poster states, we encourage you to BE A PART OF IT!

Here's the official EAA logo for the "One Week Wonder" project, featuring the Zenith CH750:
