Project Update - Greg Novotny RV-14A

“The Final assembly had gone rather smoothly, until we discovered one of the coils on the LSE Plasma III electronic ignition was bad.  A few other snags along the way, but we have an intact aircraft, approaching first engine start any day now.  Due to the monumental effort of Joe Andre, the digital scales were delivered to my hangar at TIW. Thanks Joe!  The aircraft empty weight and CG is just about as expected.  The RV-14s are pretty nose heavy, but no real surprises.  Incidentally, I have been very impressed with the Tech support from Dynon.  At any rate, we hope this collection of aluminum will transform into an airworthy aircraft this month”.
