Default New RV?

I know that Van has been working pretty steady on a glider or motor-glider. So that would be my guess...

Isn't that the RV-11? (http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/rv-11int.htm)

There has been evidence to suggest that it will have an IO-390 so I don't think it will be a motor-glider. Unless they planted the information to throw us off.

I heard today from an impeccable source that it will be at Oshkosh. So no point in speculating, in a week we shall see.

Default Maybe...

According to FAA Registry, single engine, 2 seats. Someone said a Lyco 390, so maybe an improved -7a? Sounds serious if Van is giving the report himself....

We will soon know.

IMHO. RV 9 High cantiliver wing, tricycle gear, Lyc O-233, 2place, side by side, EAB kit that will qualify in the light sport category would knock it out of the park.

Stopped by KUAO today...

I was told that there is to be "an unveiling of a 'super secret' on Monday afternoon".

Also heard some news that may make me hold off on the -12 kit purchase for a year.

Keeping the ear to the rails. Just hope the train sees me in time to stop.

Sounds like we will know on Monday what is rumor and what is real.

I have heard everything from a three seat RV with an IO-390, to the electric self launching motor glider. Interesting what people have come up with as speculation. We will know Monday, if the RV14 is actually what is to be unveiled.
