Me too. My 8A has been about 90% complete for at least 5 years now.

I have a RV-7A lanquishing in my shop, right now. I did get my -6A flying
in 1999. It only took about 7.5 years. :-) I know how it is. :-)

Welcome back Norman. There are still a few of us from that era left on the
list. The traffic has certainly died down as the snap together kits have
come to prominence but there are still slow builders out there chipping away
at their projects.

Hi everybody, I'm restarting an RV6A kit and would like to say hello. I was
hoping to hang out here and ask questions from time to time. I was a part of
this list many years ago and found it very helpful.
I purchased my slow build from Van in 1996 and worked hard for about 5 years
2300 hours. I got to the finishing kit then moved into a house with not
enough room. I spent years arguing with my city to allow a big garage
extension and then over a year building. I've now built shelves for
everything and have unpacked all my old building stuff. I'm ready to get
back to building.
I have always planned to get my engine from Bart at Aerosport Power. I would
like the latest version of a fuel injected dual alternator CS engine that
will mount a Sam James cowl and Vetterman exhaust with mufflers. Propeller
selection might be more towards quiet and smooth over pure speed. I want to
be quiet. I should ready to get the engine within the next year.
I will probably head for Langley Airport when I am ready to fly. Does anyone
know what the going price of a hanger there these days? Lease, purchase or
rent?
