RV 12, VANS RV-12 lightsport aircraft pilot report, flight report. Dan Johnson goes aloft with RV 12 pilot Chris Thelan to do a pilot report, on this all metal construction, side by side seating two seat LSA powered by the Rotax 912 ULS 100 HP engine.
The plane was equipped with the Garmin GX3 Touch, and had a number of Garmin Virb cameras mounted on it to help give you a “pilot’s view” of what was involved in flying the craft.
The RV 12 can be built from kit with the average builder taking about 800 hours to complete. To fly it with a lightsport aircraft license the plane must meet the FAA definition of a light sport aircraft which limits aircraft to two seats, less than 1,320 pounds, a top speed of less than 120 knots (138 mph) indicated airspeed and fixed landing gear.
Building kits for homebuilders and assembling fully built aircraft are two very distinct business models. In the early days of Light-Sport Aircraft, European producers enjoyed a head start in fully-built aircraft as their regulations were more accommodating.
American producers were the kings of kits, an effort that calls for good assembly instructions and technical support plus groups that can help each other. These two activities represent night and day differences.
However, in the years since the regulation arrived, American companies have significantly caught up.
Indeed, as September and the 14th anniversary of the SP/LSA rule arrived, Van’s released news of a major change.
“Van’s Aircraft is excited to announce that it is establishing its own aircraft assembly facility and team at its company headquarters in Aurora, Oregon,” the world’s largest kit producer said. “Future RV-12iS and RV-12-iST SLSA aircraft models will be assembled and delivered at this new facility.”
