Guys and Gals relax.... this is a good thing.... This is what companies do to get protection from creditors, get out financial issues to come out of Chapter 11. "Reorganization" was needed. It is not Chapt 13.
Now to my fellow RV builders... I am sorry the issue has effect you and your project. I am pre LCP, but I can imagine how I'd feel. I know this may mean, delay, rebuilding sections of your project or starting fresh. I want to tell you don't give up. It is worth it. I wish all of you well, don't stress, it will not help add one day to your life.
The basics of Van's Aircraft business and their product are solid. There is no issue I see except prices will go up (to match the crazy inflation in the last 3 years). Some contemporary airframe kits by other manufactures start at $75,000 (no engine, prop, avionics, paint, etc of course). An RV kit even after price adjustment are still a bargain, a fraction of total cost after Engine, Prop, Avionics, eetc..
I have seen this issue with major Corporations. They run it like they did in the early days. As the company grows they lose track, do business as usual. One major successful airline today, once had a secretary making multi million dollar aircraft parts orders with janitorial supplies, like she did when the airline started with a handful of airplanes, not 100's flying world wide 20 years later.
The last point is Van's Aircraft is in business. Mr. & Mrs. VanGrunsven are well and investing personal funds, because they care. The morale of the staff is good. The support by the community, although shaken, is strong. This is pretty amazing in todays age. I'm happy to hear this solution for my fellow RV builders.... it is not a great situation, but this is the best way out and will work, given a little time. Keep building and all the best wishes, Happy Holiday, Christmas and New Year to VAF Forum...
