Build Assist Program
Come to Arlington. Leave with a Murphy or Vans aircraft you helped build, end to end — kit, workshop, and expert guidance all included.

As hands-on as you want.
Some guests stay on site and run every rivet themselves. Others pop in for the milestones. Both are welcome. Either way, the plane is yours.
Reserve & choose
Pick the model — Murphy Radical, Elite or Moose, or a Vans RV-12 / RV-15. Put $100,000 down to lock down your plane and build window. Other Murphy and Vans models accommodated on request.
Design your build
Help shape your aircraft. Choose your engine — most builds run a Lycoming or Rotax, or request another. Pick your panel and controls, paint and interior, wheels, floats or skis.
Build with us
Travel to Arlington, WA. We provide the workshop, the tools, the expertise — and a place to stay on site if you'd like. Do as much or as little of the build as you want.
Fly home
On completion you pay the remaining balance and taxi out with your own airplane — one you helped build, end to end.
Everything between deposit and takeoff.
- Murphy or Vans aircraft kit
- Engine of your choice — Lycoming, Rotax, or request another
- Full use of the Silver Eagle workshop and tooling
- Guidance from experienced builders, retired Boeing engineers and veterans
- Optional onsite lodging during the build
- Final inspection and taxi-ready handoff
That works too.
Don't want to swing a rivet gun? Order a finished aircraft — Radical or Elite at $250,000, Moose at $450,000 — and the Silver Eagle Project will build it for you.
