Default Poll: Dream scenario: Which RV?
I'm curious as to the most favored model of RV as seen by the readership.

Q: Assuming someone handed you the keys to a completely finished, painted and phase 1 flown off RV of your choice - perfect condition - which one would you choose? You don't have to build it or pay for it, just enjoy it.

Remember, you don't have to build it!

Doug,
Any reason you left off 6/6A? Someday I hope to be able to step up to an 8.

What about an "Any of the above" option?

I'd take a 10 because it would be worth more. I'd fly it for a while and then see if I want to trade it for another one

Default 9A is my favorite
I built and fly a 6A and it is great, but since I work at Van's and get to fly all the demo planes, the 9a is the hands down winner for me.


Bruce Reynolds, 450 hours on my -6A

Default Choose ONE?
Hmmm... that is hard... SUV (-10) or sports (-8A)... 10 or 8... 10 or 8... or wait... maybe a 9A?

Maybe this is why I own a car and a truck!

Default Harmon Rocket or his little brother the RV4
You left off the Harmon Rocket. Everything a 4 is and more. If it has to be an original RV design, the 4 wins hands down. The 8 just went way off track. Maybe he was trying to distance himself from the farmer from Bako.
