After probably 20 years of dreaming about it I sent my kit order into Vans (empennage and wings to start).
I had planned on building an RV-9 as soon as my daughter was finished with school (and I was finished paying for it Lol). But the more I looked at the 12 the more I liked it and the better it fit my mission. I was able to get an intro ride from Vic in Atlanta and I was hooked.
I ordered the tool kit from Cleveland a few weeks ago and sent my kit order in today. I ordered the wings at the same time thinking I would have a long wait (Vans website says a 20 week wait) but AnnMarie said it?s down to about 10 weeks currently. So I guess I?ll have the wings in a box for a while.
I want to thank Doug and this site for keeping me interested for so long and Vic for the great 12 intro.
Any words of wisdom before I dive in?
