I have 2 unfinished (601XLB) in my shop / one has an airworthiness certificate but needed some repairs (800 hours on it) , the other I bought as a project (just barely started when I bought it).
I only have about 4 hours in the 601 flight time so I'm looking forward to getting one in the air. Love the performance compared to factory planes / also my Tomahawk is coming around for another annual.
I hate hiring work out as it gets expensive / also your on their schedule /give me an update on yours when you get some time on it
