It was between the RV-9 or a Velocity.

I'm a low time pilot (just started) and have worked with metal and not much composite. The RV is much less complex.

I'll build time in the RV and eventually move up to the Velocity.

The Velocity is a nice 4 place family truckster. :-)

I'm a big fan of the RV series. Best performance for the buck in aviation. There are few airplanes that are as much fun to fly, they really handle nice.

Velocitys are pretty nifty also, although not as good in short field. Every man, and woman, needs a minimum of two airplanes.

I'm going to be looking for a Cessna 180 rebuild project next fall. I need the Queen Family Truxter for the wife and dog, once that is done, then I'll move on to the RV-8.
