Garage/Tool Setup
Empennage
Fuselage
Welcome to my aircraft web site I am using to document the construction of a Van's RV-7. I am building a slow build kit which I started working on in October 2003.
In the mean time, I am flying a 1966 Cherokee 140 to build hours and experience. Then, if that wasn't enough, at the ripe young age of 41, my wife and I just had our first (and last) baby together (December 2008). Her name is Katelynn and she definitely makes it hard to get out and work on the plane. Anyway, her airplane is the pretty purple one that has Winnie the Pooh that pops out of it.

FABRICATING F-792 RUDDER STOPS: GI have been spending my garage time fabricating small angles and brackets for the fuselage with the mill. It is slow progress, but I figure that when I get to the point of putting everything together, I will make that time up.

GALLERY PAGE: Since I don't have significant progress to report, please look around on my Mobile Me gallery page. I have some pictures of my new baby girl on there.
