Great videos. I appreciate the detailed explanations. I hope you're proud of your aircraft....Having said that it's obvious you are proud. What a beautiful aircraft, and such fine craftsmanship. You inspire me!
Hey Michael. First I like your videos a lot. Great job you did. One question...did you call the "mothership" (Vans) before doing the mods to get their opinion? I did also many mods on my RV-8 and sometimes Vans told me not to do it for a reason...best regards from Switzerland...an keep posting those cool videos. Christian
Thank you, from others I have learned that most often Vans will say no to modifications due to liability and they didn’t test their planes with said modifications. My modifications, as I say in the videos, we’re not my original designs. I just followed others and they have been flying for years and thousands of hours without issues. So I was ok with them, after all it’s an experimental which is part of the fun. Thanks again for watching! Cheers from Illinois, Michael
I couldn’t believe how many comments at AirVenture 2021 I got on how nice my interior paint looks! They were always surprised to find out it’s rattle can! It’s Rustoleum 2X Satin Granite.

@@therv-8pilot you are absolutely right. Keep on with your good work!
Could you share the brand, type and reference of your grey interior paint ?
