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.

Busy Weekend HOBBS 453.5 hrs

This weekend was a busy one....there was a whole lot of RV construction activity going on. Included in this activity were some ER tank misadventures...I'll explain later. I didnt get a chance to download pics, but I will post them in the next entry. I was up at 6am both days working in the factory...there's some dedication for ya! ;)

I spent most of my weekend working on the 3rd fuel tank (the 1st ER tank). If I had forgotten, I was quickly reminded fuel tanks are a lot of work! But I am on a mission to finish these puppies up and move on. On the positive side, I should be able to teach a class on how to build a fuel tank when I am done with these ER tanks. :)
