I just realized that next month I will have been flying my RV-6 for 16
years. I made the first flight on it July 14, 1989. I built the second
customer built RV-6 and have about 1100 tach hours on it. This is not a
lot of time given the length of time that I have been flying it but I
believe it is probably above the average.
There are a few guys in my local area that have over 2000 hours on their
RV's

I am just curious how long others here have owned their homebuilt
aircraft and how many hours you have on it?


my Tailwind is 20 years old in 3 months.
had 320 hours on it when I bought it 3-4 years ago.
I've taken that up to 584 hours tacho time.

My Fly Baby is 23 years old. I bought it nine years ago with 100 hours TT (25
SMOH) and have put almost 300 hours on it.

RV-4 completed 1991, purchased 2003, currently just under 1000 hrs
