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.

Fun With RV8's HOBBS 396.0 hrs

Over the holidays I recieved an email from a new reader, Kevin in Cincinnati, who is building an RV8 (I'm almost ashamed to admit my secret love is an RV8...). He sent me the link to a great video by Jon Thocker, I've seen this video before and I forgot how good it was--great tune and flying scenes. If this doesn't get you fired up about building one of these I dont know what will?

This week I will be finishing up the right tank and getting started on the right flap.
