Hello everyone,
Trying to learn as much as I can so I can make an informed decision about which plane to build. The Sonex keeps popping to the top of my lists! Private pilot for 2 years, learned on 172 then rented 150's, now own and fly CGS Hawk Arrow ii. Good plane for a couple hours here and there as long as you don't mind slow. ;-) Looking to get a little faster with decent XC legs. Also, if there are any sonex close by that I could see, touch, smell and possibly (drool) sit in...that would be greatly appreciated!

Thanks for letting me glean some of your knowledge.
Pat Doyle

Pat,
Welcome to the forums!
Sonex has a builder search and there are a few builders within a 50 mile radius of Bangor.

The Sonex workshop is a good experience to help you choose. It is part information, part sales pitch, part hanging out with like minded people. I enjoyed it.

Wow! Thanks Brian, I did a quick search and there are 3 REALLY close to me (under 30 minute drive!). I can not wait to dive into all the info on this board. Thanks again for the help and the welcome.
