Default Factory RV-12?

Does anyone have any idea when/if Van will produce a "factory" RV12 for sale?
Vans has been very, very quiet about that.

You mean the RV-12 S-LSA?

They have been building those for a while. I think the first one was delivered to a customer in June. It's no secret.

Sorry that I should have said I know that. But they made six and sold them all in one hour. We need more and Van isn't talking about that.

Call them up, get on the list. Put down your deposit and I'm sure you'll get one.

First two batches are sold (20+ airplanes), so if you want one it might be good to talk to them and find out about batch number three. I got the impression that Van would like to see lots made. The finished product is beautiful.

Default Teen Flight II might be an option

The TeenFlight group is(was?) trying to sell their 2nd RV-12 which is fully loaded. I think it was selling for quite a bit less than the SLSA version. I saw it at Osh - they did a great job (again). It might be sold already, but it's worth asking about if you want a flying -12 fast.

Default Re Factory RV-12

EBB,

If you are interested in an ELSA RV-12 built just as well (if not better) as the factory ones, send me a message. I can't PM you.
