Has anybody noticed that Van's count of flying RV10's has increased by
about 30 in the past week or two? It currently lists 249 flying RV10's.
I check it a couple of time a week, and the numbers keep growing but I
don't see any 'reports' on their web site. The last they posted was Rick
Sked. I know that John Cox has about 10$ more in his database than Van's
had on their website, John, have you been feeding info to Van's to get
them current?

Well, I personally cranked out 10 of these bad boys last month... like
a hot knife through butter.

I keep thinking I should send Vans a note informing them of my First
Flight now over a year ago. I am still waiting for Air to Air photos I
guess.

Deems, it is always great to see posts from you. Yes, the Vans number has surged markedly in the last few weeks unexpectedly. Yes I have provided a little additional info but not the majority of that number bump that we all notice. I have been wrapped up time wise in the "Teen Flight Build" of the RV-12 for the Center for Airway Sciences, which is being reported by Lauran Paine Jr. for both Sport Aviation and Kitplanes magazine. The 12 is a whole new breed of quickbuild. The skins are soooo thin and the pull rivets so unusual. Plus keeping hands off while Teens build it is a real eye opener.
The 10 remains a stronger more practical build -IMHO. The panels, driven rivets and more substantive metal fabrications along with all that fun composite work place the 10 in a whole different arena. Medical certificates aside, The 10 is for Real Pilots/Builders. Geoff's work brings back memories of the very beginning.
My data continues about 10% ahead of those who "report" to the mother ship and yet I continues to look for pictures to keep that portion current as well. There are lots of builds going beyond our borders than tend to get dropped from Ken Scott's propaganda posts. One week ago there were 10 QB fuselage kits on the shop floor and as of last Saturday there were only four. The best level of quality remains that done by the members of this group rather than foreign nationals and a different level in the definition of quality. Q in QB is Quick which for many over the last year left a lot of room for improvement in both speed and quality.
I envy all of the 250+ veterans who have made the entire journey and shed light on the goal for those of us still in the tunnel.
Keep those posts of flying RV-10 coming.
