Below is a breakdown of hours (RV-8 hours only) organized in a few different ways. If you’re curious about how I log my hours, check out this musing about how I log hours.
For fun, I’ve been keeping track of any crew hours as well (as noted by the “Build Crew” section of a post). At the bottom you’ll see the build crew stats. My dream is to have a big party at the end of all this with the entire build crew!
