This probably ranks right up that as a whacky idea seeing as I just
purchased a brand new Cessna 182 with G1000, but I've had the Kit bug for
quite some time.  I even put some money down on a Glasair II kit long ago,
and never went through with it.  While I have no intention of selling the
182 (I really like flying behind glass), I do have a craving for a project
and a "go fast" airplane.

While, I'd love to have a Legacy RG, my mission profile and cost profile
probably is better suited to the FG.  I've done the basic web searches and
seen the only two sites that I know of that are FG specific.  Is it really
true that there are only two of you out there that are building one?

If anyone has more web based info or sites specific to the FG, please point
me at them.  Also, I'd be curious of the basic costs.  If I remember right,
most people use the 3X rule.  Take the kit price and times it by 3 to get a
basic-to-modest completed plane.

I've also lived, ate, and slept the lancairlegacy.com site (can't ya see how
the bug has bitten :) ).

Anyway, I'll return this to it's regularly scheduled programming, if there
are other FG builders out there, I'd like to get to know ya.

I do have one last question.  What are people expecting to pay for insurance
for an FG?  I'm a 500hr, IR SEL pilot as a baseline.

Thanks in advance,
Alan
