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.

Finish Kit On Order! HOBBS 888.5 hrs

Just a quick update today so I can get caught up. Been working on various things on the fuse this week and last weekend, lots of little items to cross off the 'to do' list. I'll post pics of my progress in my next entry. I've been kind of 'obsessed' with the project lately...exciting times.

Since I got back from my trip to visit Sean's project I have been ordering quite a few items that I need to keep plugging along. I also just ordered my finish kit today! So, in approx. 8 weeks I should have my fourth and final sub-kit. Wow, what a journey from that first order when I bought the empennage kit and had no idea what I was getting into...I've come a long way. Have a good weekend....I'll be in the shop, how about you? ;)
