Satisfaction with the RV-12
From the survey that was done, it looks like about 60% of completed RV-12 builder/flyers are satisfied with their RV-12s. One would think that it would be higher, any idea why the satisfaction rate is not higher?

My RV-12 has been flying since May, 2012 and I've accumulated around 115 hours. To everyone who asks, I tell them the same thing; this is one sweet plane. During my bienniel check ride two months ago, the instructor flew the plane more than I did. He'd never flown an RV-12 and couldn't get enough of it.
I was unaware of any poll of RV-12 satisfaction.

Google doesn't seem to be aware of one either?

It's higher than 60% now. Just completed that survey. Didn't know it existed. I would imagine those results are skewed as in progress builders did not answer the last question. I've never heard dissatisfied owners or builders unless they live under a rock with the Geico man.

In reality, I think you will find a much higher satisfaction rate than %60. JMO

Kyle is correct, I'm guessing! That poll couldn't really be very accurate, based on the way the questions were worded. A person still building couldn't really answer the last question. As a result, I am certain this severely impacted the percentages.
