I am building an RV-14A airplane from a kit that I purchased from Van's Aircraft.
The RV-14 is an all metal, two-seat airplane with side-by-side seating. The "A" means the airplane is the tricycle gear version that has a wheel under the front nose of the airplane.
The purpose of this website is to document the kit construction and to show that I have built this airplane in accordance with the FAA's 51% rule. When I am finished building the airplane, it will be inspected by the FAA, or one of its designated representatives, and a special airworthiness certificate will be issued under the Experimental category. This special airworthiness certificate is an FAA document that grants authorization to operate an amateur-built aircraft in flight, the major portion of which has been fabricated and assembled by persons for their own recreation or education.
