Default I want a Carden!!
I want a Carden 32% Yak, or the 35% 330 Extra. However my on problem is that I have not enough time to build it, I don't think I have the proper tools either. We live in a townhouse and not much room to really build anything, that's why I'm flying arf's now (nothing wrong with them) it's just that I have wanted one of these planes for a number of years. Thinking maybe setting up a building table in the downstairs den ( I think she will go along with it) that's how bad I really want one of these. Any suggestions?

The only problem with wanting a Carden....It just doesn't stop at just one.

Right Sleepy ????????

Like Sleepy says, you can always find a good Carden for sale and taken care of too.

Do what Sleepy said, buy used and Fly it. Later either Build one or have one Built while your Flying the Used one you bought. You'll have 2-3 before it's all said and done.

A friend of mine built his first Carden 35% Extra 330 in a one bedroom apartment, Now he is building a Carden 40% Extra 300 in his one bedroom apartment so anything is possible...
