Welcome to the construction log of RV-9A N539RV

I built my first airplane between 1982 to 1985 (Long-EZ N234BM) and have flown it for 21 yrs. When the project was complete I swore I'd never build another airplane! Well here I am, doing it again.

But it must be kismet, because when Van's issue my SN, it was 9-1330. I almost fainted standing at the counter in Aurora as that's the same SN (1330) issued to me from Rutan Aircraft Factory for my LEZ!!!

So let the blood sweat & tears continue........ 8-)
