To tell you the truth, I have more time to build than I have time to fly. As long as getting the thing off the pad isn't a requirement, I'd be fine. I'm happier spending a good chunk of time building a Dr Zooch, Fliskit, or Launch Pad kit than I am worrying about getting out there flying (although I really do enjoy doing that, as do my kids). Right now I have a Launch Pad Hawk on my bench, as well as a Sunward Shuttle and a Semroc Little Joe (which I used wood glue on rathe than white glue, so I may have to start over.....) All of which need to be finished, and probaably won't be able to be flown until the fall.
