RV12 Condition Inspection

N76012 is in the middle of her 2nd condition inspection. The usual suspects (family life, work) have prevented me from moving very quickly, so this is taking about 6 to 8 weeks.

Just as I thought I was finishing up, Van’s released two Service Bulletins regarding cracks in the horizontal stabilator box spar and in the anti-servo tab. Parts will not be available for about 10-14 days, and then it looks like about 6-8 hours to install the new parts and re-attach the tail feathers. All in all, a routine annual that will leave my bird ready to fly and have fun when the weather warms up!
