The End of Supervised Maintenance - Subscribe to Savvy Aviation
On September 3, 2024, the FAA's Rulemaking Law Division issued a legal interpretation that, if allowed to stand as the Agency's position, could have a devastating impact on the ability of aircraft owners and apprentice mechanics to perform maintenance on certificated aircraft under the supervision of an A&P mechanic.

Van's RV-15 Wing Build Progress - Subscribe to Van's Aircraft
You've heard the engineers talk about the RV-15's updated wing structure and control systems, seen the wing static tested, and now it's time to "build a pair" for further testing and that all-important flight over to AirVenture this summer. It's an all-hands project as the engineering build team creates a fresh set of wings for the RV-15 test airplane.

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!

An RV-10 That was Worth the Work! - Subscribe to Evoke Aviation
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!
