I am still absorbing all of this RV stuff. Although I have flown in a beautiful RV-6A (Paul Stratman), and went to Oshkosh this past year, I have yet to get the PPL. I visited the workshop of Matthew Brandis near Kansas City last year and got a chance to see his work and even bang a few rivets on his RV-9A as well!!
Working for Uncle Sam and having to tour far off lands puts a kink in ones plans! But I'll be sure to keep checking out all the great posts here and try to keep the dream alive
