RV-14 build time

I'm interested to know how long is it taking to complete the various kits. A search didn't throw out any results for me.

in hours or years?

The wing kit took me 503 hrs. The tail kit took me 271 hrs. I'm a first time builder and I primed everything. Priming adds LOTS OF TIME! I assure you others have built in less time than me. I have an additional 250 hrs in final painting. Again, I'm a first time painter. I did a checkerboard rudder that took longer to mask and spray than it took to build!

The process, especially painting, taught me alot! I could do it next time significantly faster and better.

Thanks for the replies
