Default Welcome to VAF!

John, welcome aboard the good ship VAF.

The factory website has a list of flying aircraft, but only as reported by their builders/owners, so it is probably low.

http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/first-flights.htm It shows 609 RV 10s flown.

Good to have you here, are you thinking of a 10??
