So I finally submitted my first order to Vans Aircraft. While it’s only the two practice kits (Toolbox and Training Project), I also decided to purchase the digital copies of the RV-10 plans. I’m expecting to begin the Toolbox project next weekend when it arrives, followed by the RV Practice Kit. Hopefully this keeps me busy until I head down to Sun ‘N Fun!
I have also been speaking with Mitch Locke from Vans, and hope to get some time with him once I get back from Sun ‘N Fun to do a demo flight in his RV10 with my wife. Depending on how that goes, I hopefully will be ordering my empennage kit.
While I really just want to pull the trigger on the empennage kit, I can’t imagine committing to such a major project without at least sitting in and getting a demo of the RV10.
