Santa came a couple days early

[Salty]

Another part done.

Just noticed, I forgot to post when we finished the rudder.

 

[Half Fast]

NICE! Pretty cool to be making some progress, huh?

 

[Skywalker]

Good luck!

So what I'm hearing is that in a few years, you'll have a Mooney, an RV-10 AND a Nanchang?

You're going to need a bigger hangar

I need a bigger bank balance.

I need a bigger bank balance.

Tear down the house and sell it for parts, then move into the hangar.

So, it's been about a year so figured it was time for an update. We just wrapped up the empennage and have started on the wings. We're actually going faster than I expected so far. I had hoped to get the tail done in the first year, but didn't actually expect to.

Lookin' good!

 

[SkyDog58]

From the pics, we can see who is doing all of the work.

 

[Half Fast]

Outstanding! Looks like excellent progress!

Noticing - another RC pilot who's graduated to bigger (and much more expensive) aircraft !

That wood pallet doesn’t look very aerodynamic

Somewhere there should be plans to be build a plane using the Crates from a Van’s kit. Something like a Pietenpol Air Camper.

Congratulations!
I fly an RV-9A that I didn't build.
I absolutely love that plane!
155kts at 8.5gph...it's been a great IFR XC machine.

I would love to build an RV-10 in retirement.
Post your progress here (or YouTube or somewhere)...I'd love to follow it!

Looks great @Salty
Question:
do all the primed parts (in this particular kit) come as such, or do you primer them yourself?

 

[Salty]

I’m doing all the priming myself.
