Tim Fitzgerald and Darren Walmsley recently completed their Sportsman. In addition to ending up with a gorgeous aircraft, they kept a detailed log of their build — Tim and Darren Aussie Web Site.
Here’s an excerpt: “We started building a Glasair Sportsman 2 + 2 in Adelaide, South Australia in our hanger at Gawler. (SERIAL NUMBER 7223) The 40 foot container arrived in Australia on 30/9/2007 and we received the goods in Mid November 2007 after custom clearance. We purchased the Sportsman assembly in the most advanced form possible and staying under 49% built by the factory. VH – OAO was finished in May 2010. “
