Well Lister's I would like to report another flying RV-10.
After 8 years, 1 month, and 1 day of construction, on 11/27/2011 at 9:07 a.m., N919AR took to the air over eastern NC (EWN). The flight was a half hour of smooth, non eventful test flying. The cowling was removed and engine inspected - no significant issues - cowling is on - now waiting for good weather to repeat!
Can't say enough how much the list, and all those with their dedicated websites helped me build a wonderful airplane. Thanks. And no kidding, when I got home from the flight I sent money to Matt, don't forget that!
You have got to hand it to those builders that built before the internet and didn't have matched holes, etc. etc.. I probably would have taken 16 years without the internet help.
Everyone still building, (I couldn't wait to finally get to say that) should press on, it is sooooo worth it. Read that new article in Sport Aviation, it's all true!

Thanks to everyone for all the compliments.
I helped do everything there is to do regarding prepping the plane for paint
- scheme design , scuff. alodine, fill, sand, block, scuff, tape, stripe
layout, etc, etc, except (due to past disasters) I made sure to never
actually handle the gun, so a plug goes to Henry Miller at Riviera Customs &
Restorations here in New Bern, NC. for the masterful paint work.

Good to hear you are back at it Jack, If I had such a nice Pietenpol I would find it hard to build another plane.
