Hi, All:
Got my PPL 6 months ago, currently working on my instrument rating. Am considering RV-7A vs RV-14A. My friend has a RV-7A and lets me fly it, and it's a great plane, but I'd like to have my own and not be continuously borrowing his. Lots of folks in the forums say the 14 is a better choice than the 7 (more comfortable, likely better resale value), but min cost difference is probably $20k, which is substantial.
Is there anybody in the Dallas area that has a 14 that be willing to let us come view and sit in the plane?
And I'd appreciate opinions on the 14 vs 7 decision as well.
Cheers,
Matt
