That is a simply stunning airplane. Your interior, panel, etc are now my new favorite and will be the standard by which others are judged. Wow!

Jon,

I just want to say thank you for sharing such a beautiful airplane. Now I am convinced that an RV is the way to go.

Jon she is JUST AMAZING!!! You've got a fantastic eye for style and that vision has translated it to one of the most incredible -7's I've ever seen!

Congratulation again Jon!

PS - Can you make OSH with 300 Liters on board?!?

All - Thanks for the supportive comments.

Your feedback just expands the RV smile....genuinely appreciated. It's not all smooth sailing building aircraft but when you finish, you get a chance to look back and realise what an incredible achievement it is. We are all lucky to share the dream....for those who are still building - enjoy the ride!

Couple of quick responses:

Doug Gray - Thanks. I'm hoping to wrap Phase 1 up this week and sneak up to Cowra on the weekend (if my wife gives me a Visa!)...you going?

Andy Rabbit - Can't wait to get some photos of JWC parked on the tarmac next to your Orange Lotus - they were made for each other!

Doug Bell - No-one has noticed the last missing detail (the Doug Bell Tailwheel).It is in transit and only a few days away now if i understand correctly (thanks). Its a must have and I look forward to it gracing my tail!!!

Pete Fruehling - Osh is on my to do list and YES I want to fly to OSH in JWC. That dream will remain a dream for a couple for years though....and for the moment - don't you dare tell my wife about it...!!!

Cheers

Thumbs up Winner!

Looks awesome Jon.
Unfortunately I spent my visa flying up to Lismore to check out Ken Eyears recently flying RV-3B last weekend.
I may be a chance at Cowra, but the odds are slim.
The one thing Ive noticed with the RV though, is that you can achieve alot on a day trip however....hmmm.
If I dont get to Cowra, Ill definately fly down to have a closer look in person sometime soon.
Congratulations again.

Hi Richard

Thanks. I'm an outside chance for Cowra at best so we are more likely to catch up down the track. Keep in touch - if you plan a trip down south we can fit you in the hangar.

Cheers

Jon
