![]() N531CE was built by Charlie Eubanks, a tool and die maker living in retirement just north of St. Louis. Of course, there is a problem with buying such a beautiful airplane to fly while you're building another. A fun plane like N531CE makes you forget you're supposed to be building! The GlaStar has a different mission profile than the RV-10. It can be equipped as a tricycle or tail dragger, put on floats or skis or tundra tires, set up for cruising or low and slow. It is very versatile. The RV-10 is also a very versatile aircraft, but its main mission is to get from point A to B fast and in comfort. The one mission they both have in common is that each crys out to be tinkered with! |
