First of all, my biggest thanks to Cinzia , patient and caring wife , pillar of encouragement ; and to Camy, brightly and essential shop helper, our always smiling daughter .

I'd like give my public thanks to Luca Perazzolli friend and councillor passionate..... as well as first flight ground support.
For friends Walter, Franz, Giordano, Luca, Daniele, Roberto and others beside them, thanks a lot at all for your encouragement.
Thank you Joe , and at all Van's staff.
Last but not least, thank you Doug, without your forum and all friends met here, the project would have been possible.

Exclamation big mistake

I forgot to thank the nice guy who took me from Cessna 172-182 and in two weeks teach me T/O and Land the RV-7, allowing me to do the first fly safe.

Thank you Mike Seager!!
