Does anyone think there would be interest in removable/hinged rear windows
similar to our Legacy windows? Please see:
http://www.aircraftersllc.com/projects/legacyWindow/index.htm
Cost would be around the same as for the Legacy, $579. The Legacy parts
weigh 21 ounces.
My QB arrives next week and I will develop the molds if I can get about 20
orders.

Dave, I'm not all that keen on a removable window, BUT I expect there
would be a much larger interest if you could make some molds for some
window frame covers that could be attached to the inside of the RV10-
cockpit windows, that could be installed on top of the
headliner/upholstery fabric and give the plane a clean/finished look.
From an appearance point of view this is one of the weak points (IMHO)
on the kit, and I've been conjuring how I could address it myself by
making some fiberglass covers/'rings'.

Yes,
I'd certainly be interested in some window mouldings and trims.

On the Legacy the hinged rear windows are very useful for loading and
accessing the baggage compartment. I realize the baggage door on the -10
serves that purpose, as does easier access from the passenger area.
So this is a question for -10 users--if you find yourselves wanting easier
access to the baggage compartment, perhaps from the right side, or if you
think it might be useful as an emergency exit, please let me know.
Some people expressed interest in trim rings, which are a much easier
product to produce, so I will get started on those soon. Cost for trim
rings will be about $100 each, oversized so you can "trim" to whatever size
you think looks best.

Double baggage doors may be nice, but I am kind of partial to the structure
that the longeron gives on the right side. I know the top longerons cary
through on both sides, but that extra strength seems to be nice to have.
Loading from the back seats is very common if you get the compartment full,
because the baggage door only goes so high. Anybody thought about baggage
tiedowns?
