Welcome to everyone who has made a modification to a kit aircraft.
I would like to say hello to all you experimental aircraft builders out there who love to make modifications to their aircraft or its systems.
I am starting this blog to provide information and reviews of the many modifications that are out there already and provide a space for those yet to be thought up.
My name Is Dave Hertner and I am currently building a Van’s RV-10. I have made a number of modifications to my own aircraft and as a result I have started a company named Effectus AeroProducts to manufacture high quality accessories and sub-kits for experimental kit aircraft.
I will be on the look out for modifications that have been made by ordinary builders just like you. I want to discuss them and post your design stories so that everyone can appreciate the effort that goes into the modification process.
In this blog I would also like to discuss the dismal reputation that many companies have who aspire to supply us with accessories. I will bring to your attention any shady companies that I come across so that we can all avoid the often devastating financial losses. It costs enough to build a plane already. We don’t need shady business practices.
All we have to do is look at the Direct2 debacle to understand a need for this type of communication.
I will be posting regularly here so I would appreciate that you spread the word that I have begun this endeavor.
Dave
