Ryan, et all on the forum:

Quick update...as there isn't much to report. The project Sonex has taken a hiatus for now. Actually moved the fuselage back to my home from the hangar I was going to share. Seriously considering selling the project but for now it's "on hold" while my wife and I do some remodeling at the house.

Scott,

We hope that you get your house remodeling done soon and then get back to work on the Sonex. You are so close to being done! Hang in there! It is worth the effort!

Good afternoon all,

After a longer than expected break in the action with my project, I've done some deep thinking and made the decision to sell my project rather then complete it.

It's currently listed on Barnstormers. If anyone is looking for a well built, nearly complete project, with very little left to finish, please take a look.

:( Best of luck selling it! I'm sure it's a top quality project.

Hello all,

After taking a break from the Sonex project, and almost having it ready for final assembly, and almost selling it, we have decided to push on and complete the bird in early 2016! Once we get a kitchen remodel done and behind us, I will be able to refocus my energy on this project.

Look forward to sharing more updates with the forum early next year!
