Nice. That'll scream. Username Protected wrote: Have fun Arlen
I went the other way, built an F1 Rocket, sold it (7 year build 7 year fly) then bought an F33, sold it after a year. I am finishing a Glasair IIIRG with a TIO540AE2A, it fits my profile best. It's my last airplane, plus I enjoy turning wrenches.
The journey is the fun part, so many menu selections enroute!

Congrats Arlen and welcome to the club. I've had a RV-6A for over 10 years now and I just love it. Mine also is a 180 with a constant speed prop and the wife and I travel just fine in it. I'm sure by now you saw the two big service bulletins that came a couple of weeks ago to check for cracks in the forward horizontal stab spar and elevator attach points? It looks like a crude poll on the VAF forum is showing about 14% of the fleet is finding the cracks. I inspected mine a week ago and didn't find any. Keep a close eye on yours...  Dave
