Hi, everyone. I'm curious to get a realistic view of expenses for building an RV-10 by asking those of you who are willing to share your experience. For my situation:
For a few years, I have been planning to get started on an RV-7/7a when the finance factor allowed for it. At this point, it allows for an RV-7, but the recent addition of a baby (who is now 18 mos) changes the situation, and makes an RV-10 more necessary. While this may seem like an obvious question, I am trying to determine whether or not it makes sense to just wait (****, I've waited this long), and build the RV-10 when it's possible, or just go for the RV-7.
So, I'd love to see actual expenses for specific equipment of the flying or almost flying RV-10's out there, or perhaps a line of thinking for those of you with younger children. If you have kids, how did it affect your model choice? If you chose the RV-10 because of the kid(s), was the financial part an issue?
Obviously, it's a personal decision, but I'd love to see how you guys made your decisions.
Thanks,
Mike
