I've gone back and forth between the RV7A, 14A, and now the 8/8A. After a demo flight in the 14 and endless talks with other builders. Im leaning towards the 8 or 8A.
I have a family of 4, but not willing to commit to the extra costs of a 4-seater. I'm a bigger guy (6'3 240) and its a little tight for me in a RV7. Thus narrowing my scope in the 14/8.
After seeing the RV 8 up close and talking with owners it seems like its a fantasic plane. Also I can save a bunch of $$$ plus its a more mature design with a larger support/option network. So the scales are tipping for me towards the RV8.
Question Time
-How is the RV8 for longer cross countries for passenger an pilot?
-Bigger guys. Have any issues with feeling cramped?
-Am i crazy or choosing the RV8 over the 14?
Thanks
Roger
