I was hoping to put off the decision on which end to drag for a while longer. I wonder if the -14 just contains a few extra components (ie: the 14A plus) or if it's fundamentally different in some way (ie: no going back)...
Well, I have caught the RV 14 bug!
I had to not build the RV 7 due to life circumstances at the time. But, I am now in a position where this can become reality.
I will be in PDX next week and plan to do a drive by at Vans to check out the 14 if it is there.
Cheers
Sorry, next week is Oshkosh week... that is where the RV-14A will be.
hope that some good RV14 flight reports emerge. everything read so far was PR / magazines or other "industry people", where a true "the good, the bad, the ugly" report can not be expected. preferrably reports from current 6/7 flyers, i'd like to really know how it compares (short of flying to the states and getting a ride ;-)...
Interesting. $3975 for the 14, $3915 for the 14A.

here it is Ron: http://vansaircraft.com/public/kit-prices.htm
Just trying to justify the price here.
In the end, only you can make that decision...
It isn't totally an apples to apples comparison with the RV-10.
Standard in the 14 kit will be all the wiring (including auto pilot) for that portion of the airplane (I.E., pre-made harnesses, etc.), the static system, different elevator trailing edges that are more expensive...
I'm blind once again. I see that the price is listed and 10 weeks away, but do not see the emp. order form. Help pointing me in the right direction would be appreciated.
Thanks Ron
You guys need to "do some of that Eye-Tee shift, Mav" and clear or refresh your cache, as I see the empennage prices on each and every one of the links (my first time clicking any of them) including the order form.
For those of you with the Emp. form can you till me the crating charge? The wings are $85 , I was just wandering so I knew the total cost for tomorrow.
Thanks Ron
I ordered my tail kit on Friday at Oshkosh. Starting there and not with the wings. 10 weeks is what they told me.
