Section 6 - Vertical Stab
....Jan 24, 2020

Started on the vertical stabilizer. Predicatable, once you decide to get started you realize you don't have every tool that you need. Order a few things and enjoying getting the build started.


 

Empennage Delivered
....Jan 16, 2020

Empennage crate was delivered this morning. Vans does a really good job of packaging. The duct tape on the skins was a bit of a PITA! Enventory, organize and ready to get started.


 

Workbench Drawings
....Jan 8, 2020

Going to build a few of these workbenches. A couple will have fixed bases and a couple will be on casters. Complete dimensions and cut list included. Link to pdf file --> Workbench PDF <<-


 

Ordered the Empennage
....Jan 2, 2020

Ordered the RV-10 Empennage. Vans had it crated and shipped within just a couple of days. Reportedly, will be delivered on or around Jan 13, 2020.

300 lbs box... ack...


 

Tool Kit Order Placed
....Dec 27, 2019

Ordered the Cleaveland Tools RV-10 took kit with a couple of the upgraded items. Will spend January getting the work space ready and plan to start the empennage in February.

[Update] Cleaveland Tools are very prompt. Order was packaged and shipped out next day.


 

Planning and Schedule
....July 3, 2019

Have worked out a start date and a rough completion schedule for the air frame. Shooting for an approximate 36 month completion.


 

Initial Planning
....June 28, 2019

Just within the past week, finalized the decision on which RV to build. Will spend the next month of two gathering information, setting up the workspace and getting ready to get ready...
