We love giving back to dedicated builders like Adam Bezanson, which is why we knew we had to kick his design up a notch and give him an absolutely breathtaking design for his Vans RV-10. Watch along as we tell the story behind this beautiful craft and show off a plane that's worth the hard work and dedication that went into it!

Van's RV-12 Build: Rotax clean-up, fuel tank troubles - Subscribe to EAA166 Hartford, Connecticut
As the RV-12 project moves closer to the ground-running phase, it's time to take a closer look at the Rotax 912 ULS engine installation and do some preventive clean up. Work continues on the lower engine cowling, the canopy frame, plus the team gets creative in fixing an unexpected snag with the fuel tank plumbing. Project lead Rick Montero talks it through in this build update video.

How to Actually Afford an Airplane - Subscribe to FloridaFlying
