<DIV><FONT face=Arial size=2>Good experienced hands that have done pattern
planes before, can build light and straight will take about 80 hours on the low
end. At $10/hr that's $800. I've paid more and charged less.
That's a low end starting point.</FONT></DIV>

FAMILY="SANSSERIF">Guys,<BR>I am going to give pattern a try this 2004 season
and am buying a rtf plane from a fairly local fai pilot. In order to have a
back up plane i have a guy who was going to build me a 40% bird for IMAC but
now i think i'm going to have him build me a new pattern ship. What is a fair
price for building one of these?<BR> basicly it's a RTF job minus
the radio install. ( all parts/paint not included in job price of
course)<BR>Please give me a range of what you've seen ( high to low)<BR>thanks
for your help!<BR>Regards,<BR>Marc Moldowan<BR>Team JR</FONT>
