Hi Gang, about 2 years ago I began construction of an RV-7 and then due to financial reasons I had to give up my project. I was 95% through with the tail kit when this happened.
Fortunately, I am ready to begin again but before I do, I would really appreciate a chance to see, and possible fly in a -7 up close and personal. I have concerns about the size of the cockpit. I'm 6'1" and weigh about 205. I know there are plenty of threads about guys that are 6'5" that fit ok but I would feel much better if I actually had a chance to sit in one-just to see for myself.
If anyone is willing to fly to the St. Louis area, I would be very grateful for the opportunity to see your airplane up close. I would be more than willing to pay for fuel or dinner or whatever. I have a hangar out at St.Charles Smartt field (KSET) and this would be a good, quiet airport to meet at. I would also be willing to drive a reasonable distance if this would be more convenient.
Please feel free to send me a pm and I will definitely get in touch with you.
Thanks..........
