Recently sold RV10
So I had a VERY nice RV 10..and I recently sold it...ONLY because I bought another plane. And the ONLY reason I sold the 10..was not b/c of finances, I could afford them both, but b/c if I didnt sell the 10..I would never fly the more expensive retractable TP that I recently upgraded, and bought. The RV10 is an awesome plane..fast, stable, has lots of room, jumps off the runway, sits up high, and looks so cool.
I live in WA, went to Vans to look at the 14...it is NOT a 2-seat RV 10. Not even close. It doesn't sit as high, doesn't have all the leg room that the 10 has, your missing the back seats, not nearly the headroom, and I dont care what the dimensions numbers say..the 10 just seems so much more spacious inside the cockpit.
Im NOT knocking the 14..its a great plane..but if you ever want to haul anything..the 10 has it beat!
Oh well, Ill just stick w my new turbine for speed, and fly my RV 8 when I want to have fun...well that is IF the PNW wx gets any better soon!
