the aopago app requires a faa designator code... their lookup doesn't work and i can't find the code here on vaf...

seems like it should be easy to google...but...so far no luck...

does anyone know what the faa designator code is for the rv12???

Also, can someone confirm that /U is the proper equipment code (for Skyview)? I think I read that on here somewhere but I cannot find that post...

Code is: HXB

You can use HXB in the U.S. if you want, but know that HXA, HXB and HXC are generic codes for experimental aircraft that haven't been assigned an actual FAA/ICAO assigned code.

For the FAA, look on page 488 for the VAN's series of codes:
FAA Order 7340.2E - Contractions

For ICAO, type VAN'S as the manufacturer for the VAN'S series of codes:
ICAO Codes (Doc 8643)
