After 5 years of building my RV-10, N518RV took to the air in February 2010. It was painted in August, after phase 1 was completed. It is equipped with an Aerosport Power IO-540, Grand Rapids EFIS/EIS, Garmin avionics stack and the Tru-Trak autopilot. It has plenty of power and is a real dream to fly. I’m now coming up on 70 hours and have already made several wonderful trips with the plane. What a great kit!
