I sat in an rv14 and am considering ordering one. I have plans to go to AP school in August, goal to become IA to work on and sign off my own plane. Having mostly fit in the rv14 I am now wondering if building a plane at home will ultimately be more rewarding. School would take two hrs total travel each day, spouse does not like the time commitment but is supportive.
I’m wondering where to build it. Main garage would have to share space, might get dusty, would require insulation, wall closure, hvac. 24x40 at present, so lots of room. Little room to add to E panel.
I think I prefer a currently 3 sided shed, has power with room to grow. Business high power air compressor nearby. In total shed measures 16x60. 1/3 already has concrete. I can swing enclosed 16x20 with garage door on front, maybe go a bit over into adjoining area.
Is 16x20 going to be enough? I can get some wall storage up high.
Drywall or other interior.
Any general pointers?
Building and getting repairmen’s certificate sounds like it would fit my desires.
I have not flown in a 14, looking for a flight…hit me up
