As we know, Van's has announced delays in shipping some kits. I ordered my 7A wing kit (standard build) on Feb. 25. Shipping was originally scheduled for the week of May 17. Yesterday, I received a letter from Van's saying that the shipment will be delayed until the week of July 12! The reason given is that they are experiencing a delay in production (no further detail).
While I would like to have my wing kit on the original shipping date, I understand that delays happen. In the meantime, I've been doing the fiberglass work on my empennage and I have built my wing stand/jig. What other things could I be doing in the interim? Cleaning the garage/airplane factory is at the top of my list, but are there other things I could be doing in preparation for the arrival and construction of my wings?
