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.

Snowmobile Trip Pics HOBBS 479.5 hrs

Here is my favorite shot from the trip. It was a pretty amazing sight, this was a snow/ice encrusted tree on top of a place called Elk Mountain. How it was still standing is beyond me, thats one resilent tree! With a little photo editing, it looks like a shot from the surface of another planet.

Here are a couple pics from last weekend. Had a blast, weather was immaculate and the snow was deep. Sometimes I have to pinch myself, its hard to believe I get to live here!

I finally got back out in the shop last night for a couple hours, it felt good to build some airplane parts after about a week haitus because of school and snowmobling. My friend Sean in Colorado Springs took delivery of his RV7 fuse a couple days ago. Congrats Sean! Cant wait to get mine.
