The Lancair kit photos are very nice -- perhaps you are building the 
pressurized option?

I don't care what you, specifically, do with your own aircraft. If you 
can do what you plan to with regard to 'Linux boxes' without risking 
your own life, the lives of others, and your license, then fine.

It would be fun if I could build such an aircraft, but I have no flying 
license. And I'm a poor man. Perhaps in the future <grin>.
