The Trials and Tribulations of a Novice Airplane Kit Builder
Welcome!My name is Larry Enyeart. Thanks for stopping by to see my website that I have created to document the building process of a Van's RV-7. This site is intended to track my progress as I build an RV7(x). The 'x' indicates that I have not made up my mind yet on whether to build a tail dragger or the nose gear variant. (Ok, well that decision has been made when I bought the fuselage - it will be a tail dragger!) Plus other things like the engine.. to inject or not to inject, Lycoming O-320, 0-360, Eggenfellner, Rotax, Chevy or turbine? How about mods such as an external cargo pod (drop tank) or special cowling? Too many things to think about... Total Project Hours: 582 as of 1/3/2009Current Status - Blue areas indicate that portion is complete, Green means I am currently working on this portion and white means work still needing to be done: Random thoughts: (archive)12/20/2008 - Wings moved to the airport. I now have room in the garage for the fuse to come together!12/6/2008 - Working on the wings again... finishing up the tips so I can get them out of here.Feel free to contact me at anytime if you have questions or have any helpful advice!
