Hello everyone, I've been trying to decide for the last year on an airplane to build. I've been following this website for a while and I finally narrowed it down to several airplanes due to many considered criteria. One of them is the excellent builder support within the Vans community. Well, I've decided that I'm going to build either an rv-3 or an rv-4. I just buckled down and purchased a quantity of tools and the practice sheet metal/tool box from Vans. My plan is to complete the build by the time I'm 30. I'm 24 now. I guess my next major step is an empennage kit.
Also, I have a box full of spare parts from the family spam can's avionics upgrade. Let me know if anyone wants any old working eqiupment so I can purchase the empennage kit. I have a cp-126, NAV-11, KI-214, 170B(khz dial problems but works), or possibly a beautiful condition ky-97a(still deciding whether I want to sell it). We have a 530/sl-30/347/(2)GI-106a now in the piper.
