| Post subject: | T-18 vs RV14 |
When Van's introduced the RV-14 last month at OSH with an estimated completion cost of $70-80K, I wasn't surprised. I walked the flight line to look at the RV14 with a Missionary Pilot friend who spent 9 years flying Cessna 185's in Indonesia. After seeing all the experimental airplanes on display including the Van's lineup his favorite was, you guessed it, the Thorp T-18. Why? "It seems like something affordable I could build and fly on a family budget". The T-18 still represents a large bang/buck ratio, even in our current economy it is an excellent value. The fan base grows... V/R Smokey http://www.airventure.org/news/2012/120 ... RV-14.html http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=IaniNr-291s |

It's even a better bang/buck ratio when you can take the AC home ! RB |
