I am thinking about attending one of these workshops. Sportair offers a 2 1/2 day class on RV building. George & Becki Orndorff's is a 2 day sheet metal class (which focuses on building sheet metal aircraft).
Anyone attended either or both of these? Any opinions one way or the other?
Thanks,
kevin

I can't tell you about Sportair (no contact), but I cantell you I found George Orndorff's course to be very informative & helpful for one who'd never had any experience in metal aircraft building; the course went well past simply working with aluminum & was oriented to RVs. I'd highly recommend it.
