RV-7 N6113 Mark Antry (mantry) KBTF

Well, I guess Christmas day would be the perfect time to show off what Santa brought me this year. Ok, I took delivery on Dec 18th but it is still one heck of a Christmas present from one heck of a wife!




The details:

First flight I believe was in 2002
It was sold to a Gentleman in SLC in 2004 and I purchased it from him Dec 18, 2014.
I believe it was a quick build kit. John has done EXCELLENT WORK. I have had numerous people, EAA Chapter Tech Counselors, A/P's, Fellow RV7 Builders, look it over both prior to and after me purchasing it and all have said "IT IS A GOOD ONE!!!" Thank you JOHN!!!!!

I've only got about 3 hours in the plane but I sure am enjoying it!!! Can't wait to explore and learn so much more about her!

Thanks in advance to all the VAF members for helping me with questions, etc.

Merry Christmas to you for sure

And she is a keeper for sure

Beautiful plane! Congrats!

Update: John reminds me it was actually a SLOW BUILT. Excellent workmanship. This was his first, I can only imagine what his models 2-5 are like! Great to have such a great resource in chatting with John, the builder.

Added a few Mods

Shunt for the EI FP-VA module to add Volts & Amps to the EU UBG Engine Monitor
