Today marks the One Year Anniversary since making the First Flight in my RV-12 N737G. Yesterday, we made the 160th flight in the airplane!
Although Tony T. accuses me (sometimes) of being a CC - Chronic Complainer - that's what happens when you're both a pilot and an engineer - always looking for a better way. Nevertheless, I'm here to tell you the RV-12 is truly a GREAT airplane - I like the looks and the performance, and have come to love it more each day.
At one time I was looking at assorted Cherokees, or maybe an RV-9A, but can honestly say if the FAA changed the Third Class Medical rules tomorrow, I wouldn't trade my -12 for anything.
I've documented my Build, Flight Test, and subsequent Flying activities in a section of my website - with some pretty good airborne photos as well. You can find it all here:

Thanks to Vans for a great design.
