RV-12 – I Wanna Build an AIRPLANE!

Have I lost my mind? What – are you crazy?? You’ve never built anything substantial before. Okay, a picnic table and a swing set. But you did spill blood on both. Seems every time you pick up a power tool – it’s time to have the bandages and antiseptic ready. And now you’re thinking about building an AIRPLANE?? and then putting your butt in it and flying??

Yes – I have been wanting to for some time. And now the bug is bitten. I am thinking about an Van’s RV homebuilt. I would like to do an RV-7 but that’s a big investment. Van’s aircraft came out with a E-LSA (that’s Experimental-Light Sport Aircraft) kit. The RV-12. Looks really interesting and all the reading I have done to date on the kit says it is great for a first-timer. Hmmmm. Let’s see what happens. I need to do some more research first.
