21-MAY-2012 Vern Rogers (fotabug)

Experimental

It is suggested that this is a Van's RV6. I am not that knowledgeable about them. I checked online and it does appear that it is. Quite an interesting history behind it. - http://www.vansaircraft.com/public/rv-6int.htm

It looks like a very small plane, definitely not a two-seater!

The most enchanting and nimble aircraft, great capture Vern.

And I also like that centralized take off aide gear. The faster you run the faster you go?

Very elegant model.

Similar to Grumman American Yankees that I used to fly. Great shot.

Oh, that is cute. It sure isn't very tall - or big! Nice shot of it, Vern.

Where is the one for the other foot?

Cute little aircraft.

Big emphasis on little. Like the old Army insignia.
Steve Thuman21-May-2012 02:29
That looks like a lot of fun.

Very nice, Vern.

I'm pretty sure that's a Van's RV, which is a very popular homebuilt. This year marks the 40th anniversary of this plane (which has evolved over to the years) I'll get to see a whole bunch of them at the Oshkosh airshow this July.

It certainly is a small thing but look sleek and fast. Good shot of it.
