bcfc, in your position, I'd join the PFA. Their website will show you all sorts of activities which are not homebuilt specific (most issues are the same once the aeroplane's built aren't they!).
PFA membership is about 8,000, which when you consider there are about 2,000 PFA homebuilts in the UK, means a lot of people like you are in it.
