Hey guys,
I am just looking for a bit of advice. I am wanting to build a side-by-side RV. I found this ad in Barnstormers. I have talked to the owner and he is the original purchaser. The project seems well organized and documented. The wing and tail kits were purchased in '95. I know all the differences between the -6 and the -7. I want to know if there are any things that should be of concern from the age of the kit. The wing tanks are factory built. Would they be "sloshed", and is that a concern? Also, it is not the later -6 tail. Does that mean that the airplane shouldn't be spun or is it just a more proactive recovery?
I know this thread could go anywhere, but I am trying to be specific. My goal in building is to be cheap, light, and simple and I don't think that it gets much better than the -6. See any red flags? Thanks for the help.
