Bob, I will read that. However, it seems fairly obvious that it would be much easier to find a CFI for my own plane. Of course, if my plane were here, that’s what I would prefer as well. So here’s my situation the way I see it. I find some benevolent soul in my area who has an RV7A and the required experience or I can find a CFI to fly into the hills of WV and check me out there, or I can find a pilot to ferry my plane from WV to FWA. So, I figure, why not ask for the simplest first.....
Happy to hear creative solutions..
-UPDATE-
Bob,
I read the other posts and understand. However, I’m not worried about abusing my RV7A. I’m a little beyond the 200 hour mark so pretty sure I can fly the airplane. What I need is someone to take me up, do some slow flight, stall series, spin (ideally), and a handful of landings. If I were a CFI and someone needed a checkout I’d be happy to do it for no charge as long as the intrepid aviator were willing to share with me a couple of hours over breakfast or some expertise on rewiring a RV panel...
