RV12 with only 130hrs. I bought it at 60 hours. I haven’t “robustness tested” the nose gear yet (the mains is another story )
During preflight yesterday noticed what ‘may’ be a developing crack. Well, ‘may’ was good enough for me to change plans and knock out the Service Bulletin. Luckily, I already had the part as they’re back ordered to kingdom come with Van’s.
Today, I’ll do the Engine Mount standoff Service Bulletin since I already have the cowl off and engine hoist out. That’ll be a quick one to complete. And then the 12 will have all SBs complete. ...until the next one
Flew my newly minted RV-10 on it's first cross country pleasure trip to Page AZ. Flew in Thursday, almost got myself killed with stupid pilot mistakes (multiple). Realized afterwards that the cockpit camera was on the whole time. Here's a YouTube video for those who wish to learn from someone else's stupidity! (It is embarrassing to admit, but hopefully, someone will learn from it.)

Friday was raining all day. Saturday, flew 3 hours over some of the most beautiful terrain I've ever seen. Attached are some pics and a video for those interested. Today, flying the Grand Canyon (bucket list item).
