Welcome to the club of Hatz builders and obviously also the Rotec Hatz Classic section!
I First thought you bought the Curtis Adam Rotec Hatz, but it's a new build, I guess.
Obviouly you are a though builder wit such many projects you have to your credit!
We wish you good progress and stay in touch!

We are the Swiss Rotec " Vintage Hatz'" builders with now about 50 hrs flight time.
Kind regards

Verrrrry nice! You've made great progress in 3 short years! Hope you don't mind loads of questions regarding your Rotec install once I get that far.
