Pros and cons for buying

Build vs Buy

The decision to build vs buy was tough. For the same money you can buy a decent working Cessna, however, you don't have the same level of control and versatility as what you get with the Carbon Cub. Not to mention, all the knowledge you gain by putting together every piece of the kit. And of course the bragging rights of building your own plane!
