  2. The X-29, the most statically unstable aircraft ever built, was a U.S. forward-swept-wing technology demonstrator. It flew in 1984, pioneering advanced aeroelastic and flight control systems. Two prototypes were built for NASA/USAF/DARPA testing and are now on display.

  4. I'm excited and a bit nervous to have an EAA tech counselor come over and look over my Van's Aircraft RV-8. #experimentalaircraft #vansaircraft

  9. I got my Crow Safety Gear harnesses for my RV-8. It'll be a little while before I can use them, but since the price was going up 15% shortly I thought it would be good to order them. Now, back to deburring. So many holes to deburr. #rv8 #vansaircraft #experimentalaircraft

  14. For anyone following along, the tailwheel to gear leg measurement just needs to be within 1/4”. I’m about 1/16” so I’m good to go on this measurement. #rv8 #tailwheel #experimentalaircraft

  19. The shakiness of learning tailwheel flying has me obsessing about getting my landing gear absolutely perfectly aligned. I don’t want to always veer off to the right or left because of sloppiness in the drilling now, I do that enough on my own! I’m wondering how close is close enough - sent off an email. #rv8 #tailwheel #experimentalaircraft

  24. So many little details to tie up still, but it was soooooo cool to see the aileron move when I pushed or pulled the control rod today in my wings.

  29. Now that my fuselage is on a rotisserie it doesn’t make a good place to hold the RV-8 plans. Unlike the more modern RV-10 and RV-14 the 8 used text that refers to large drawings. Now I have a very cheapo art easel to hold them!

  34. It’s nerve wracking starting on new things. Drilling engine mount holes to 1/4” for AN4 bolts for the rotisserie had to be one of the first things I’d do on the fuselage but I’m glad I had the 90” drill bushings for a bit of peace of mind. It’s a lot of metal to drill through here - it supports the whole engine - so it has to be as straight as it possibly can be. I’ll eventually upsize these for the AN6 bolts that hold the engine mount on. #rv8 #experimentalaircraft #vansaircraft #pilot

  39. I have an RV-10 GMU-22 mount from Stein Air. I don't need it, anyone want it? Just cost of shipping?
