RV trainer (kitfox)
 
OK, so I hope I don't get deleted for not being RV-related. I'm hoping the connection will be that my sons will be future RV drivers. I just finished the Kitfox hoping they will now learn to fly, and I set the panel up to look like the RV-10 to ease the transition when the time came.

Of course, it makes it easier for me, too. :) Love the AFS's.

Awesome Vic!

(5) RVs in your signature.....I think it's RV-related :D.

Great paint job.

Vic,
Can I be your son too? :D
Looks good!

DAR Inspection
 
Just wondering, do you inspect a plane you've built? It seems like it might be good to have another set of eyes look it over.

Change your signature...Kitfox SS completed.

RV6
 
Vic,

I met the owner of the red RV6 you built some time ago. I can't remember his name, but he was super nice. The 6 was really looking good too. We met at the gas pump at Pine Mountain airport at Callaway Gardens. He had a friend in an RV8 that was just as nice. You obviously have the talent to build RVs.

Me too! I grew up in Georgia, so I could have been your adopted son... Unfortunately, I had parents that loved me enough to keep me, but not enough to build me a slew of cool airplanes (and live on an awesome airpark)..;)

Thanks.
 
Thanks for all of the kind words. Yes, I wish I could adopt myself. :)
As for the inspection, as a DAR you can not license any airplane you have been involved in as a part of building. The MIDO here actually uses mine for training purposes, which is another story. :)

Vic,

I'm coming down your way in a few weeks to drop of our -6. Kent is doing a panel upgrade on it. Love to see your work if you're around.

You will be very impressed I assure you. Not only is Vic a great buy, but he's a terrific builder and DAR!!!

Great looking Kitfox Vic. I've been thinking about one of them myself.
