Nancy, welcome to VAF.

I think you should get hold of Pierre Smith, he is active on this forum.

He has both bought a flying RV, and built one. He is also a great resource for learning to fly them, and is known to give rides to folks thinking of RVs.

Not too sure what you mean by the term "the new one" ??

Default Welcome Nancy...

....to VAF. It really is a buyers' market and I bought mine way below parts cost. The downside is that you either need deep pockets or a banker who likes you...like mine

Best,
