RV10 - Build Section 37 Fuel System - Video 54 - Subscribe to Pilot Rhino
I am basically running a fully custom fuel system. Because I am using a Electronic Fuel Injection, we need a fuel return system, that requires a different pump and fuel selector which basically throws the entire vans plan out the window.

An Uncompromising Build - Matt Dralle's - RV-8 N998RV - A Project Documentary 2023 - Subscribe to MattsRV8
This is a documentary of the building of my RV-8, N998RV "Ruby Vixen". There are some epic air-to-air shots from an R-44 helicopter (piloted by Matt Smith of Leading Edge Aviation in Bend Oregon). This video was a lot of fun to make and produce. Thanks to Jeff Chorney and Marc Diaz of Media Mindscape for their outstanding talents on the 4k video project!

Used Airplanes: How Not to Lose a Fortune - Subscribe to AVweb
In the market for a used airplane? Do yourself and your wallet a solid and look beyond the basics of engine health. With airplanes still selling at premium prices and too many pre-buy inspections getting shortchanged, plenty of owners are shelling out thousands of dollars for unexpected repairs and replacement accessories that could have been negotiated before handing over a big check.

GoPros & Grass Strips - Fun in a Cessna 172 - VansAircraftBuilders.com
We as Aircraft Builders, need to take time and get out and fly, just as reminder of how great it will be one day to fly an Airplane that we built ourselves. Today we flew into Cedar Mills Airport (3T0) in Gordonville, Texas . A beautiful and well-kept grass strip worth checking out. Just a short walk to the Pelican's Landing Waterfront Restaurant.
