This is the second RV-3 I've owned, this one a RV-3B I built.
With the experience of the first, a 3A there were options I wanted to have-
slinging canopy, access door forward of the canopy old school wheel pants and
cowl. Steam gauges with the exception of the TC-6.
99 % done, well it will never be done, there will be changes and second thoughts.
