I must sell my RV-7A, financial reasons. I am the owner / builder. The plane flies as advertised in Vans specs.

Please, send me an email or a private message with your email address and I will send along a PowerPoint packet of pictures and specifics on the airplane.

This day/night VFR, cross country RV 7A has 107+ hours (TTAF, TT Prop, SMOH).

Certified Lycoming IO-360-L2A engine ~2100 hours since new.
Experimental Fixed pitch Sensenich prop (72" prop 85" pitch).
Dual mags - Slick
Sliding canopy
MGL avionics Odyssey (10" MFD)
Backup steam gauges: Vacuum attitude indicator, Altimeter, Indicated airspeed
Dual Icom IC-A200 comm radios
GTX 320A transponder (altitude encoding sent from the glass panel)
Custom heavy duty cloth seats

I have flown it 1,000 miles as longest trip in one day. Easily capable of limited aerobatics (flop tube) no inverted oil sump. Not aerobatic certificated.

Please, contact VAF user Smokyray (Rob Ray) on this forum if you wish his information as he did a pre-buy inspection for a client of his (He will likely sell you that report).

RV-7A

This plane is hangared across from me at Valkaria. I wasn't there when it was built, but it looks well built and I think it would be worth serious consideration if you're looking for a newer low time RV-7A.
