Ben and I sold our first new set of Duster plans in Brazil. I have a
second tentative Duster plan order going the the UK soon as well. Lots
of tire kickers too. Ben and I are looking to get as many Dusters
being built as possible!


Check outhttp://buildaduster.info/tofind out more. Come on! Build a
Duster! :-)


I met with my EAA technical counselor last night for the first time
and he is pleased with my progress. My next steps in completing my
Duster include ordering all the hardware to be built by a local
aviation welder then build the box around the main wheel and the
framer work for the seat pan and back.

Blake,

Thanks for the work you are doing. *The US homebuilt sailplane scene
has been too quite for too long. *What is the plan on canopies? *Did
the original builders build their own?

Lane,

Duster Plans call for a wrap around simple plexiglass canopy. I have
the last 2 remaining REAL blown canopies. A gentleman in the UK wants
to buy one from me. I will take mine before installed to a canopy
maker here in the US and have them make a mold of it so orders can be
placed for it in the future.

My goal is to sell 60 sets of plans over the next year and if we can
get even 10 actually being built, that would be great!!!

Regards,

Blake
