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.

Costa Rica HOBBS 385.5 hrs


Just returned from my trip home for thanksgiving, now making last minute preparations for a trip to Costa Rica. I've never been to Costa Rica before but did spend two years living close by in Panama when I was young. I am looking forward to seeing this area of the world again, it is beautiful from what I remember. The geography and wildlife should be pretty much identical to what I recall from Panama.

I was hoping to do a pressure test on my left fuel tank but its not looking promising that I'll have time to fit that in before I depart. So, the blog will be on hiatus for a while longer, sorry about that. I am itching to get back at it though, so I expect it to be fast and furious once I return. I'll have a month long break from school until the spring semester starts in the new year. Here are some pics of Costa Rica that I found on the internet...yeah, I'm trying to make ya jealous! ;) Dont let my vacation haitus stop you from pounding some rivets however.
