Has anybody here got an RV10, ideally with a nosewheel, who would be available for an offline chat? I'm trying to put some information together in aid of some modifications for a disabled person who I'm helping with the design of a planned build.

There was one at the Bushe today G-ORVX. I am assuming it was an RV10 anyway!

Didn't Roger Hopkinson of the LAA build the first one?
He should be good for some info.

I can summarise:

It's the finest aircraft in the LAA fleet, as long as you like burning lots of AVGAS and don't need to go upside down. :-)
