thanks for that, hard to kow where to start.... I'm a real newby, but
looking ahead if I want to buy my own plane, given the choice of a
"new" hombuilt and a 30 yr old cessna 150, I know where I'll be
looking, trouble is I havent been able to find out much info, so
thanks for the tiop0, I will go take a look.

Cheers
Marlbra

One here now living in Canada, but when I was in Wellington, it was quite
vibrant with atleast two homebuilders in the same suburb that I lived in.
One was building a Nieuport 12 and the other a Sonex (I think). Lots of
homebuilders around... we started it all remember with Richard Pearse....

Check with the local aeroclub and also check out the Recreational Aircraft
Association of New Zealand (RAANZ) http://www.raanz.org.nz/ They are an
ultralight organization, but there are lots of homebuilders that are
members.
