I've been watching the -10 from afar to see how it comes out. I'm glad to
hear that the cabin is that big. The -7 has been on my watch list for a
couple years now and seems to be quite impressive itself. In a couple of
years....I'm gonna do one or the other.....

BTW, if your into homebuilt, check out www.rvproject.com. This guy is one
of many people logging his progress online (he's a RV-7 builder). He does
an EXCELLENT job of documenting his process. I check his site daily for
updates and *almost* feel like I'm part of the building.

...was Van's new, four-place RV-10. They had a cockpit mockup outside the
tent for the tirekickers to sit in. The roominess is truly impressive,
especially the rear seats which hold two six-footers in comfort. Van is
projecting an 1100 lb. useful load for the airplane if you build it light.

The formal introduction of the airplane was jammed on Wednesday. When the
crowd was asked how many had already ordered empennage/rear fuse. kits, a
dozen hands went up. When we were asked how many were thinking about
ordering one, a hundred hands went up (mine included). Van was smiling.
