Go for it kid you sound a lot like me 30 years ago. I was flying when I was 15 years old with my Dad next to me. By 16 I was on on way what a thrill to look over and have a empty seet next to you on that first flight. It the best sport you will ever do. I built a kitfox 5 back in 1994 and I now have 750 hr on her what a bird. It was a long job of just 2000 hr but well worth the time. Good luck with the flying and have fun.
