I am building an RV-7.. There are a number of chat groups and personal web pages for the RV's of all numbers... Go to Van's RV web site and look there... Also, a google on rv-6/rv6/etc. should bring up sites...

An aside, i just shot a couple of ILS approaches with FS2002, and I am impressed by how twitchy the simulator is compared to the ILS approaches I just flew  for real...  The sim drifts off quicker and then is slower to respond to corrective input when on the glideslope... Nothing bad as I never drifted more than one or two dots at any time, but a real approach is a piece of cake compared to the sim... If you can fly the sim, you can fly the real iron..

I have tried ON TOP and I like the way it flies better than MSFS, but neither ver7 or ver8 is happy with my computer as I can only get part of the controls to work... Spent time on the phone with ASA guy, but he could not solve either... So, staying with MSFS..  Where do I go to get my money back!?

Gotta go as my renewal on the medical certificate is sked for 1pm today...

The cynic in me (I'll bet Hagar thought something along these lines) has me worrying about someone who is building a REAL airplane asking for construction tips in a VIRTUAL aviation site .. .

Of course, one has to conveniently overlook the combined experience of the people that actually frequent this site, but then, who am I to spoil the story with little details like .. the truth?

I wouldn't pinch the one off the Y2K guys, they've helped me a great deal with getting things underway. A really nice and friendly bunch of guys.
Craig Zeberdee (Chris) and myself are planning a smash 'n grab at RAF Hendon, if you want to give us a hand (and help prevent us old men getting hernias)...
