I am building an RV-10 in Happy Valley, OR just SE of Portland near Clackamas Town Center. I've just finished the horizontal stabilizer and plan to re-build the vertical stabilizer because I did such a terrible job on it, but I'm going to do the elevator and tail cone first!

I'm building a '10 up in the Gorge near Hood River. Per my signature, I've completed the empennage, wings (QB) and am in the process of attaching the tailcone to the QB Fuse.

Do you need any help?

Thanks for responding guys! I am trying to get the body (slow build) soon. Wanted to see if anyone was around building so we could share our progress or help out if needed.

I have a lot of experience with fiberglass and I built some of the parts with the help of Synergy Air

Probably in a few months. But I expect to start the cabin top within the next month or so. If you have fiberglass experience, I'd definitely be willing to trade some time!

I don't need any help yet, but if you want to look my work over I'd welcome the input!

BTW.. We met at a meeting of EAA 902 some time back!

Default Check out EAA292 7S5

Good Choice on the 10. I am building one also with QB fuselage and wing.
My Neighbor Bruce has provided much advice from his build.
We at Independence Air Park have a wealth of resource and knowledge.
We are hosting the Vans Home Coming again this year. Please refer to
EAA292 web sight for info/reg. Good food, free weekend lodging with
friendly air-park residents.
