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.

Aircraft Systems Design HOBBS 414.5 hrs

I was doing research over the weekend on fuel tank systems design. I wanted to spend some time understanding my fuel system...instead of just following blindly how Mr. Tuckey did his system. Nothing against Mr. Tuckey, but I just like to understand the details. Anyway...this research is ongoing. In my search I came across this very nice document by Gary VanRemortel on Aircraft Systems Design. I thought I would post it for your consumption. I have not read it in its entirety yet, but I will when I get some free time.
