Worth the Squeeze? - Subscribe to Savvy Aviation
The FAA imposes a lot more burdens on owners of certificated aircraft than they do on owners of experimental amateur-built (E-AB) aircraft. Certificated aircraft require an IA to inspect and bless them every 12 months, may only use FAA-approved parts, and any major alteration requires FAA-approved data (usually an STC) and IA blessing. Is the safety benefit of certificated aircraft worth the additional regulatory burden?

RV10 Build - Section 36 Brake Lines and Rudder Pedals - Video 52 - Subscribe to Pilot Rhino
There are a bunch of modifications I mention in this video as it relates to the brake lines and the rudder pedals. Again, by this point I am kind skipping around and building out of order, but I hope you enjoy the video.

The Near Final Tail for the RV-15 Flies - Subscribe to Van's Aircraft
So what's been happening with the RV-15? In the last month, after getting its new wing fitted and flight tested, the engineering team has been hard at work, um, undoing a lot of their earlier work! In fact, the whole tail assembly - surfaces and the tail cone itself - had been modified several times to test different configurations.
