Wings on definitely sounds like the way to go!
Unfortunately the budget is not the main problem at the moment (although I can’t imagine the girlfriend would be too suited!). It’s more the space issue – I live in an apartment… Still, I’m aiming to own a farm house one day, and a small paddock would be a help and a barn would be ideal to avoid planning permission in case the local council don’t approve of a Jaguar or the like on the lawn!
Still, I’m intrigued to hear about this airframe…
