First Flight: Greg Tilford’s RV-14A | Cincinnati, OH RV-14A #140192

[DeltaRomeo]

I wanted a project that I could enjoy with my sons. Building an RV was a great way to spend quality time learning some things together….not the least of which was patience .​

​

The plane flew beautifully, and phase one is progressing nicely. I’m incredibly grateful to my wife and sons for their help and support. A special thank you to RV builders Brad Rife and Mike Sherman, as well as Urban Schroder, for their advice, assistance, and encouragement. The RV-14A is a fantastic kit! Keep building!​

Congratulations! RV-14s look great and fly faster using our carbon fiber wheel fairings with air doors. See aerosouth.net

That’s great! We all remember our first flights. After you get the testing done and if you are looking for a place to fly, head on up to KTEW. It isn’t a long trip and we have a couple of really nice RV’s here and could have some lunch ready for you!

Thank you, sir! I just tried to make it as nice as yours. (Don't look at my fiberglass...I fell short there. )
