Project Abstract

The collection of pieces of aluminium in my garage will hopefully one day be the empennage (horizontal & vertical stabilizers, rudder and elevators) of the Vans RV-7 two-seater light sports aircraft I am about to start building.

The CAA registration of my RV-7 is G-HUTY.

Here's a photo of the fabulous RV-7 owned by Nigel Reddish.

If I’m lucky and work very hard my bundle of
aluminium might eventually turn out something like this.

As you will see, I've only just started so have a very long way to go.                                          Photo by Dennis Cook
