I voted building but flying is a close 2nd choice for me. After all these
years of building I am enjoying some success at flying as well.
(Good topic selection!)

I am new to the hobby and learning to fly, but I do enjoy the build so much, and the anticipation of the next build.

I made my cross for building because I'm addicted to balsa and ply wood but there are so many aspects which I really enjoy and so my favorite aspect finally depends often from the current state. I like Rons mentioned aspect also but sometimes I enjoy it most to sit in front of a handful stringers and formers, with a cold beer in my hand, dreaming of my finished model Actually I enjoy sketching plans
What I like least of all is the finishing. It's hard for me because I have to less experience with these scale and aging technics

You left off one of my favorites. "Shooting the breeze" with the guys at the field.
For me, it's: Building 50%, interaction with the guys at the field 50% and if I get to fly.....that's all gravy!
