Bummer, my older Apple computer doesn't display the intro page icons on the new Van's website -- it just shows the generic "photo box". Same issue sporadically throughout the site. Some photos show up fine, some do not display.
UPDATE: Greg at Van's helped me with the above issue -- all is now well!

I would like to see every thing for each type of aircraft under the same heading.
It was too hard to search for everything associated with the specific type of aircraft. Example: For the Rv-14, every part, every type of kit, etc., associated with that specific type. Same with the other types. I did not find it that way in the past. Maybe I am computer illiterate? Simple is my best!
I do not know if the new web site is that way or not.

Wow, good job by Greg and crew!!
I think we will all be pleased over time with the direction Van's is now heading. I believe Mitch was a good hire as President; he hired Greg and is quietly making other good things that aren't yet visible happen there too.

I like it!
Rebranding is difficult to do but the Van's gang did a good job!
Congratulations!

Since your "fixin'" stuff...When will the updated parts catalog be released? Still downloads the 2015-2016.

And the RV-9/9A looks like the same situation.

Also fixed. I think I figured out what happened. Short version is someone looked at those pages so many times he became blind to the obvious.  Appreciate the report!
