Thanks for visiting my site! This site is designed to provide historical reference and illustrate the construction of my Van's RV-10 Aircraft. Many hours of preparation go into every assembly prior to construction, but before you know it another section has been created. Someday.....it will fly!

I've always been fascinated by airplanes. I suppose this is not unique, but building an airplane and then flying it sure is. I've been blessed for sure.

This is not only about aircraft for me. When I first squeezed into a Cessna 172 for a trial flight, a harsh reality became very clear. My weight and size would be a real issue. Time to do something about it!

Shortly after, I began the Atkins Diet. As of November 2005, I have dropped 80 pounds since I started in mid February. I still have more to lose, but not bad so far. The project is sure a motivator and keeps me going. You may notice some subtle changes in my construction photos along the way. As the airplane gets larger, I get smaller.

It's time for me to participate and not be a spectator.

Please use the Guest Registry if you get a chance. I would like to hear from you!

.....here's the latest. Currently multi-tasking and working on the doors and control surfaces.

Took a look at the Meadow Lake website tonight and got a HUGE surprise. The Cherokee 180 I've been training was shown stuck in a tree short of the runway. Thankfully, the pilot was fine.
