RV7A - ASN Report - N65RW

[A2022]

well, anytime you get off into the grass upon landing, all bets are off. 60ft wide runway. always upon landing, put it on the centerline and hold it there even if the runway is 150ft wide, because one day it will be much less. keep the brakes in perfect condition on these RV's. I liked the paint scheme. the paint on the tail was a considerable effort.

The sole owner/builder/pilot onboard the Amateur Built single-engine airplane received minor injuries.
