It has been some time since I blogged about my CX4. To tell you the truth. It's all my fault. I have not been interrupted by family or obligations, work, or anything. Just a shall we say, plateau in my building. Mostly because of my self doubt in completing a project of this magnitude.
Everything I have read says do something every day. That is how to complete an airplane build. How do you eat an elephant? One bite at a time.
I have doubted my mechanical abilities. Experiencing several set backs in my efforts to build parts from plans. Instead of taking the goofs and mistakes as a learning process, I have let the failures turn into negative vibes.
Went to Oshkosh Airventure 2016 this past week. Thanks to my loving wife Nancy for putting up with the experience.
But I feel re-vitalized. Seeing all the beautiful homebuilt aircraft and the normal people that built them. Talking to many of them. I learned that just about everyone of them had experienced something like I have. So I feel re-energized. I hope the feeling lasts. When I return home from Airventure I will have a new approach to my goal.
More to come -
Greg.
Glad to hear that you're thinking about getting back into it. I always come here looking for ideas, so I selfishly need you to stay a step ahead! I'll meet you at Airventure when we get them done!
