Several years ago, when I was a Cal Ploy, San Luis Obispo Aero student, I managed to convince the department that they should build an RV. I taught a lab class each quarter in which a small group of students worked on the plane. The idea behind the class was to give Aerospace engineering students a hands on opportunity to see how to design for production. After construction is complete, the university will be able to use the RV for their flight test class. A small group of faculty and students are making a serious push to finish the plane this summer. The photo below was taken just before Oshkosh, and wiring is underway now. The panel will feature an MGL Avionics EFIS.
The only components that the university is still looking for are an ELT and a transponder. If you have one and would like to donate it or sell it cheap, please let me know.
Thanks!!
