Two phrases that come to mind from variations of other famous quotes:

"The RV experience - If I have to explain, you won't understand"

"The longest journey begins with the first rivet"

"Keep poundin' them rivets....it's ALL worth it!" Rosie

And from my friend Trish Russell who bought an RV-6A;
"If you buy an RV, it comes with friends..."

Put on some customers panels we did ......

After the standard Pax Warning:
....The Wright Flyer was built by amateurs and the space shuttle is built by professionals!

....It doesn't have 4 engines and carry 400 passengers, but then it's never had an engine fall of either!

- and my favorite (found in many aerobatic pax compartments) -

Get in, sit down, shut up, buckle up, and HANG ON!

Good thread!

Cheers,
Stein.

Default From the stand point of "other people"

This one is a paraphrase of a doormat for sale in the Boeing Museum of Flight in Seattle, "An RV pilot and a normal person live here."

What I'd love to put on my panel -

PASSENGER WARNING:
This aircraft is amateur-built (by a Federally-licensed professional aviation maintenance technician)
and does not comply with Federal safety regulations for standard aircraft.
I trust my workmanship with my life... so can you.



What I'm gonna have to say to my wife someday -

"Hey honey... wanna meet the other woman in my life? "
