David,
Thanks for the video and story of your journey building your RV12is. Your transition from the original model to the iS will be familiar to others who are following you. I?m helping a teen build group doing the same thing except they decided on the iS prior to ordering the fuselage. This has worked fairly well except during the finish kit the plans require some special attention to be certain they pertain to the iS and not the original design. It the appears the staff at the build has this figured out now and are moving forward.

I hope to show your video to the group for inspiration. Thanks

I especially liked your video because I grew up in Columbus, Ohio and I would take students into Bolton for touch and goes. I instructed for the Ohio State University while going to College. A great place to live. I miss all the weather now that I live in California. I visit Columbus on occasion to see all my relatives. Good story.

Your video took time and effort to prepare. It is inspiring for a new builder, such as I, who is just starting on the -12iS empennage. Thanks for sharing.
