The Velocity Service Center Head Start Program is designed to provide first time Velocity kit builders the opportunity to work on-site with their airplane project prior to kit shipment to their own home base. The long-term advantages of participating in the Head Start program are amazing. Not only does it allow the builder to focus on the project without many of the usual distractions, it also allows him or her to get organized, to learn from experienced building assistants, and to develop good working habits from the start.
Participants can spend any length of time in the program.
Special tools, shop equipment, rags, sandpaper, clean-up materials, gloves, drinking water, and coffee are provided at no extra cost. Builders insure their project while on site. For those just starting their project, the work day often begins with a lesson on the next step to be completed. Builders continue on their own, seeking technical help as needed. Often the Service Center has Velocitys in various stages of construction, and builders find it a great advantage to look at finished steps before beginning the same ones on their own kit.
