Default Would like to "try on" an RV-8
Hello All,

I am very interested in the purchase on an RV-8 that is located in TN, Before making the trip from PA to see the plane in person I am hoping to meet an -8 owner in or near North East PA to share their experience with the plane and to see how well I fit in the cockpit.

Additionally, any advice on someone to help with a pre-purchase in TN would be greatly appreciated.

Thank You
Mike

Default Welcome to VAF!!!!
Mike welcome aboard the good ship VAF

I suspect if there is an 8 anywhere close to you, you will be getting an offer soon.


Good luck with your searching.

You will have fun with Ron, he is a great guy and a very good pilot, I have learned a lot from him in the short time I've known him. I may meet you when you go for said ride, I'm relocating my four to 9n7.
