I'm a newcomer. A year ago I passed my checkride and was pronounced fit to
continue learning to fly. I bought a Savannah kit (an improved CH701) and had
it flying by last December, so I've owned a finished homebuilt for six months
and I've got 62 hours in it so far. The weather has been too crumby for long
flights, so I hope to rack up a bunch of hours this summer going out to the
desert in eastern Oregon.

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?
