Ron's RV7 Aircraft Factory


Welcome to my personal blog. This site was created as an informal description of my build progress in the construction of a Van's RV7 aircraft. A place where family/friends/builders/curiosity seekers can follow along. It is not intended to be a detailed description of every step in the building process as that would be much too time consuming. There are plenty of sites that do a great job in that arena, that is not my intention with this site. My intention is for this to be a philisophical/motivational/inspirational account of the emotional ups and downs of the life changing journey...and it will change your life. I hope this will give you an idea, through my eyes, of what its like to make this transformation. A note to other builders, I am not an expert so do not put your safety at risk by attempting anything you see on this site until you have done your own research, or send me an email so we can discuss it. Any deviations from the plans are not approved, nor endorsed by Van's Aircraft or myself. Thanks for visiting.

Inventory Finished HOBBS 202.5 hrs

Last night I finished up the inventory. It did end up taking me another two hours, those bags of hardware took a little longer than I expected to count. I also labeled all of my parts bins, which is a slow process. But, I'm ready to rock and roll now! Amazingly, every single item was present and accounted for! Van's really does a nice job with this. There were at least two instances where I was sure I was missing some hardware...and low and behold,  I ended up finding it eventually. One bag of hardware fell on the floor and was under my cart. :) The only thing that hasnt been inspected are the two main wing spars, I will do a thorough inspection of these as I start working on them. They are the first parts I will start drilling on.
