Summary: Great example of experimental flexibility, this RV6 started out as 6A and was converted to a taildragger at 44 hours TT. Low time excellent quality RV6 equipped for IFR flight while remaining capable for gentlemen's aerobatics. Van's slogan "Total Performance" is not just a saying and this airplane can prove it. This is a great example of the growing Van's fleet. Countless hours of enjoyment and that "RV-Grin" await.
