The time and effort you have expended to produce this videos is greatly appreciated not only by current builders but those like me who are wondering if they can transition from wood to aluminum structures. It’s a whole different ball game. Van’s owes all its video producers a huge debt of gratitude because you all are the most effective and cost efficient kit airplane marketing department in existence. I would at least give you a plaque. 😁
Thanks Alan! I have really enjoyed building this aircraft and videoing it. I'm looking forward to the next kit (and the money I'll need to purchase it 😁)
I’m impressed with the fit and quality of the plastic fairings in this kit.
The kit is very easy to put together.... and fun!
Nice video! I used a dremel to to trim the material which seems to make things a bit easier.
Just did this today. I’d forgotten how fun it is to sand fiberglass.
Hi Todd! I didn't take me long to figure out that I really need a mask!
Love your videos! : )
Thanks!
Thank you for making these videos, helpful.
Great job...waiting on my RV12 kit to arrive in a few months.
Thanks Joseph! You'll love it. Great airplane to build.
How's it gone/going?
@@N9197U I am done with the empennage and the wings and started on the fuselage…avionics are being built now by steinair and engine is ordered.
@@jms241965 Amazing!!! You are an inspiration to me, I want to build a fully custom airplane from scratch!
Thanks welcome to Somalia
You made it look easy!
Thanks Leigh!
Thanks for sharing! 😎👍🏻
Are those fairings just for cosmetic purpose or due they serve another purpose (added lift or stability)? I know they are an optional piece and they do seem to clean up the ends much nicer. Thanks again.
Hi Jeremy! That's a good question. I don't really know. I've seen rv-12's with and without the fairings. I really like the "look" they add to the aircraft. My choice to get them was purely cosmetic.
@@Vansaircraftbuilders i would think that if someone is planning on painting the plane then the fairings look good and give it more of a finished part, but if your going to be polishing the aluminum, the fairings would look a bit odd and grey color agains the shinny metal.
