That may be because they tell you -12 builders how to empty the trash can when it is full. In the older kits, even the match hole kits like my -9 there are lines like, "There is a lot of work before joining the two halves, you know that those tasks are so do it." or something like that and I'm not joking either.Is it my imagination or are there more RV-12 revisions than on any other RV ... past or present?![]()

That's partially because for an E-LSA kit, the plans and instructions must be very explicit. The inspector must make sure that you followed the plans exactly. If there are things left out of the plans, that is not possible.
I just print 'em out on a standard 8 1/2 X 11 sheet and staple them on top of the outdated instructions. Then I use my handy, extra large magnifying glass.![]()
I never said that it had to be built exactly like the "LATEST" plans. If it is built in accordance with YOUR plans and service bulletins have been complied with, you're good to go. If there is something in YOUR plans that must be updated, Van will tell you.? If we determine that there is some reason that an accomplished construction step must be re-done, we will issue a Service Bulletin detailing the required steps and/or parts.
Van's is telling us that even tho a revision to the plans has been issued, it is NOT mandatory unless a service bulletin is issued.
As such, the RV-12 may not be built to the latest plan revision. Any idea how the DAR would view the difference?
