"I'd done 900 hours of building and had built the basic airframe of my RV-8 before moving it to RV Central. Under Jay's expert guidance and mentoring the project accelerated dramatically through to completion. There's a great cooperative atmosphere among the builders at RV Central and people are always dropping by with helpful suggestions."
