| Building Time | The factory staff builds a Goose in less than 1000 Hours, with no special jigging or equipment. Homebuilder times will vary depending on builder experience. The many pre-molded parts, and composite construction, make the Goose a 'fast build' kit. To further cut time we offer several Quick Build Options. (see pricing.) |
