Popham Van's fly-in June 08

Postby Hagar » Wed Jun 11, 2008 5:53 am

At last we had some decent weather. Terrific day down at Popham on Sunday & the event was well-supported. The Van's RV range must be the most popular of the home-builts. Although some that I expected didn't turn up I saw more of these pretty little aircraft on one airfield than I've ever seen before. Here's just a small sample.

I didn't spot an RV-3. There is one at Shoreham nearing completion. Here's the two-seat RV-4.

Lots of bright paint jobs like this RV-6.

Odd one out. The RV-6A with a nosewheel.

The lesser-spotted RV-7.

This RV-8 looks a completely different colour from different angles.

It's the one on the left here.

Another RV-8

And an RV-7
