I bought this RV-4 from a good friend when I was stationed in Texas. He PCS'd about a year before me. I've put some time and money into it, intending to fly and enjoy it as I was completing my RV-7 build. Other priorities including my 2 kids, spouse, job, house, and 2 planes I have shared interest in have taken precedent, so I've not flown this plane nearly as much in the last year as I believe I should have. EDIT: plane is currently in-annual. I was absolutely certain it was due in May, but logbook shows last inspection was 7/15/23. Got some wires crossed.
