Until proven wrong, I will claim to be the first to land an RV-12 at First Flight Airport in Kitty Hawk, North Carolina. It happened on October 20, 2013, a few weeks short of the 110 First Flight anniversary.
Here is the proof:

I landed there once in my Cherokee years ago. I bounced and swore I heard Orville's disapproving sigh!
