Title: Peter Nevai's Pathfinder
Post by: Dick Pacini on March 21, 2014, 03:57:31 PM
Peter, did you ever finish your Pathfinder?  You had a nice build thread going a few years back but you left it.

Its been a really busy past year and a half. The pathfinder is sitting in a corner all framed out waiting for covering, cockpit detail, hinge installation and engine and tuned pipe install.

With the weather warming up I can at least get outside to do some sanding I need to do. I just need a break in the work schedule that has me at home for more than a month at a time where I feel like doing more than catching up on sleep. Still working out of a tiny basement apt. Where my building area is the floor. All my good stuff is at home in Fla. But the plane and I am not. I will be resurrecting that build thread soon. Perhaps this weekend if I can take it out side and take a couple photos.

Thank you Peter for responding to this thread.  I followed your build thread very closely because I also have the Pathfinder kit still in Que under the bench.

Your build was very methodical and informative.  I remember you did have a couple of problems.  Did you contact Eric to advise him of the situation?  RSM is very good at customer service.  I would be curious if any changes to the kit were made as a result of your thread.  I would be interested in any upgrades or retrofits to my kit.

The Pathfinder is a beautiful plane and I am saving it for such time as my building skills of 40 some odd years ago gradually return.

Please do keep us posted of your progress. y1
