Hello fellow Rv6 owners,
I have been lurking the site and gauged some interested in purchasing an RV6A aircraft. My intent for the aircraft is for VFR flight, economical flying, and the ability to do a mild cross country every now and then. I have found a suitable aircraft in my projected budget however it needs some TLC in the cosmetic department. It's not a huge deal breaker to me to fix the fiberglass work and paint as I can take care of that issue.
Only thing I know to do is follow the noted SB, inspect for visual damages, compression check, inspect the oil for metal particles, and put the plane through a few maneuvers to see how it reacts.
Is there anything major I need look out for? or is there a trim chart published by van to see if this plane was built straight? Or should I just stay away ? LOL
Here is a link to the website. I appreciate any input and hopefully I can become a RV owner and become an active member on the forums.
