Ian's R​V-14A Project

A diary of building an Experimental Amateur Built Aircraft,
the Van's RV-14A

Welcome to my Blog

I try to explain what I've done and any significant problems or milestones.
​I'll leave it to the videos to show the work.

Wing Kit Inventory

2/2/2016

0 Comments

 
Completed the inventory of the Wing Kit  today. 

Only took a couple of hours to check contents of crates. Checking the contents of the hardware however, took over 4 hours. Found a few items of hardware missing. 

Also some bags of hardware were not well labelled so needed to go to plans to try and find out what parts were what. Still not able to identify a few parts so have sent an email and photo Vans for info on what parts are what.

Got notice the wing kit had arrived and was ready for collection on Tuesday. Arranged a 13 x 6 trailer and drove down to Brisbane Port to pick it up. Port staff loaded the trailer with no apparent damage to the crates. Only lost a small piece of timber used as the feet to keep it off the ground.

Got it home and in the garage.

​Now for the inventory.
