I have ferried several RVs across the country. I'm not trail-dragger endorsed though, so -A models only. I have time in 6A,7A,9A,10s (and built a 9A). We have exported a couple dozen RVs over the past couple years, so I've picked up quite a few around the country to bring them back here to California to our disassembly plant.

Cool ferry pilot, soon.

i have only a few hours of RV-7 and 9 time at the moment but by the end of May i should have at least 40 hours of RV9 (taildragger) time in the log book, if that will help. contact me then if you still need one 'cause i like to fly and it's even sweeter if it's someone else's plane and fuel. my trips begin and end in south texas and nope i don't have airline privileges. don o.

You might give Gary Brown a call, he just posted this:

He likely has airline privileges too.

Rob Ray used to ferry RV's. Not sure if he still does it though. I believe he's at Sun 'n Fun this weekend but he may still check his PMs. His username is "smokyray" in these forums.
