Did anyone just get a 12is fuselage kits delivered? What’s the current lead time?
Thanks.

Have you seen this page from Van's website?

Ordered in February 2022 with a prebuilt fuel tank. Still awaiting a crating date.

I have. That page said 6 months when I ordered my wing kit. It took 15 months. That’s why I’m asking.

My fuselage took 15 months, but I think lead times have improved considerably.

People getting kits now placed their orders BEFORE the production revamp, so their lead times are really irrelevant.

By the way, my fuselage kit was shipped without the Pre-Built Tank which was / is backordered.
