I seek valuable input from those builders with flying RV8's and -8A's The issue is handles and the potential utility of installing one or more handles as an aid to entry and exit. Right now, I use a step ladder to get in and out and since it will be some time before the wings are attached, it is difficult for me to envision how entry and exit will ultimately "feel."
I recently bought a pair of handles from http://www.aircraftextras.com/ the very same handles I installed in my -6A and do find their use in that application to be virtually essential.
The pictures illustrate potential handle placement in the -8. I am very interested in your comments and real world experiences.
