Regardless of where the third wheel is located its basic function is a
"taxi/steering" wheel not part of the "landing" gear.
As for the "hardest" to build you left out the RV "derivative" (Van's quote
from RVator) from Bakersfield, John Harmons HRII. You start with an RV-4
and then get into some serious building to make it into a Rocket. HRII 115
hrs N561FS. Waiting for the RV-10. KABONG (GBA) Do Not Archive

I am interested in trading a 1970 Ferrari Daytona coupe for a Rocket. I can provide
photos and details if there is anyone interested in trading.
Thanks,
George

George,
Let me give you some advice... That won't work, they make you give the
Rocket back when they find out the Ferrari is stolen (don't ask how I know).

I have owned the car for quite some years now and I am not sure I understand the
humor in your post. Maybe you could take the time to explain yourself.

Chuck,
After twenty years of flying a supersonic jet fighter - the F-4G -, the
P-51 is small potatoes (can't believe I really had the nerve to type that)
:-) .
I took a novel approach. I started with a RV-4 tail kit. Had to fight with
my co-workers for several months about the Rocket but one hundred hamburger
flight to Bakersfield changed their minds and work on the rocket started.
Flys great.
Tom

NAW ! ! ! ! That would have been way too easy. To start with that much
extra work room it would have made the job a breeze. The "open" spaces from
the firewall foward are measured in 16th's of an inch. Do Not Archive. "Why

Doug,
It might be interesting. I was talking to John Harmon the other day and he
stated that he was able to hold his own with a couple of P-51s which have
crossed his path. Of course, I have the slowest Rocket flying so I may have
the disadvantage .
It would be interesting to see which of us would get a religious experience
from the one V one. (Can I say that anymore under the new rules?)

Take care,
Anyway, stop by APV and get a Rocket ride.
