Default A new RV-10 is born! Meet N747RJ.

Today was a milestone in the life of N747RJ. Today she passed her airworthiness inspection, and grew wings. Thank you Jessie Saint and all of the crew at Saint Aviation for helping get to this very important step. Thanks also to DAR Arnold Holmes, for being so thorough, and making this such a pleasant experience. Next hurdle is the Phase 1 flight testing! Let the good times begin!!

Congratulations, David! Your aircraft is a work of art, beautifully built. I look forward to hearing about your first flight and eating more wings to celebrate.
