Does anyone have an inventory list for the wing kit that they would be
willing to share with me?
I have purchased a wing kit from another builder, and would like to get
an idea of the part counts, etc before I go to pick up the wings.
Thanks in advance.

A special thanks to Bob, Gary, and Neal along with their wives Susan, Brenda
and Ally for all that you did to set up the RV-10 Hdqtrs - super meals - and
just making a nice place to hang out anytime during the 2010 Airventure! We
appreciate all that you all did! My daughter figured out that we drove 6,200
miles and hit 15 states on our little venture to Airventure. Suffice to
say, we are glad to be home, and look forward to that journey in the RV-10
...... This year had the rounds
at an all time high for the "Mush Pot" award as the rains were relentless
for the days prior to show time. Memories will include: a brand new Dodge
4 x 4 stopping, looking down the road (corner of 52nd and Lindberg), and
quickly putting it in 4 wheel drive, making a procedure turn - - - buried to
the axles with all 4 wheels spinning and no forward progress in just 15
seconds - what a mess; The night Airshow was really nice and something
different; celebrating the anniversary of the C-47 or DC-3 and watching
that many (about 40) of them fly over together (may never be seen again)
was awesome; watching the WWII veterans de-plane after being taken to
Washington DC on a special mission to visit the WWII and other Memorials by
American Airlines - very moving, knowing how much my own Father would have
enjoyed that treat as he too flew C-47's in WWII; getting Carroll Shelby's
signature and having him shake my hand and say, "May God Bless You" was a
special treat (Mr. Shelby is the oldest living dual organ transplant
recipient to date); AND I COULD GO ON AND ON! Those of you who have not
ever made it to the big OSH need to put it on your to do list as it IS the
greatest airshow in the world and if you have a passion for aviation, you
will think you are in heaven.
How many knew that Yellowstone National Park was Easter like in July? Well
it is, or should I say "was" this year. Flowers everywhere, stunning - we
even had the ole Bison walk out on to the road right in front of us and
proceed for almost 30 minutes @ 1/2 mile/hour staying in our lane the entire
time! Around the next corner - bear grazing in the meadow - show stopper.
Badlands, Sturgis, Minute Man Missle Site, etc etc. Point is that even if
your RV-10 is not complete yet, the family can plan a really nice memorable
vacation together in the family vehicle to OSH. Think my daughter is now
addicted and will need her annual Oshkosh fix over and over. Guess her
helicopter ride this year from Pioneer Village added to that feeling! My
wife now wants that rating!
OK, back to the fiberglass... Was great to see over 20 (including Van
and brother Jerry's) RV-10's fly in, as well as many old friends and some
new @ the show and look forward to another great show next year. Keep
pounding, and glassing away!

Hi Heyden,
I have the Vertical Power VP-200 system in my RV-8 and love it. I wouldn't build
another homebuilt without one. I have a great deal of experience documentation
on my RV-8 Construction log under the "Electrical" and "Avionics" sections.
Below are links to each. Scroll down on the respective pages.
Electrical System

Avionics Systems
----------------
http://www.mattsrv8.com/users/category.php?user=MattsRV8&project=638&category=2971
(Look around 03-25-2009 for the final wiring installation).
Marc Ausman of Vertical Power was a tremendous help to me during the design and
installation of the electrical system. My score for the VP-200 system? 10/10.
Hands down the coolest way to build a modern day aircraft electrical system.

haven't seen anything on this forum in 2 days- which I find strange..
I second Matt on the VP-200, it has made it significantly easier, and let me
tell you that the wiring design and implementation was the hardest piece for
me. I would not build my plane any other way, at first I thought the cost
was too high but the more I have designed it the more features I find the VP
does for me that would have cost extra without it. It makes it well worth
the difference of old school versus the solid state.
