if it's of any interest to you, someone is selling what looks to be
modified plans for the VP2 on ebay on CD. I can't remember what he calls
it.

Yeah, it's not a real VP, but if someone wanted to see how one was put
together whilst deciding whether to build one...
I'd want to know an awful lot about engineering before I built something
that I got offa Ebay for 3 bucks!

If I remember correctly, Evans aircraft had them on their website as a
free download because he didn't want the resposibility of someone
paying money just to find out that it didn't really fly. Later he took
them off all together because of the liability. If the designer wasn't
sure if it's airworthy, why would you? On the other hand I have emailed
a couple of people who have built and flown their own.

If you search the net you can find VP-2 plans free, but they are not at the
Evans Volksplane site,...he no longer sells nor gives away the VP2 plans.
Check out the VP2 builders in the volksplane group on yahoo. There are quite
a few flying. A nominal two seater but a nice roomy one seater from what I
have heard.

People who have built them tend to say performance is adequate for a
single
person but marginal for two normal size persons.

You are right about Evans taking the VP-2 plans of the market was due to
liability concerns. But, is was not because the plane wasn't airworthy, it
was because of the potential of a lawsuit from a passenger, since the plane
was designed as a 2-seater (that's the story as I understand it). My intent
is to explore the design as single seater (which as been done many times
already) since I am not the FAA standard size pilot of 170#.
