YGBSM, as my Wild Weasel partner would say. Below is a direct reprint copy
from the Van's site.
Wonder how many people at OSH are looking, asking question about the
"new" -8 prepunched format compared to those drooling over the prototype
RV-12. Prepunched RV-4...maybe...but that would screw up all the HRII
builder sales Van's does. Where are photos of the RV-12 ? ? Somebody has to
have taken some. Are they taking "escrow" orders for the RV-12 yet ? ? Can
you get/fax/e-mail me an RV-12 order form ? ?
Now that would be a BIG ANNOUNCEMENT. KABONG HRII waiting for the
RV-12.
"In RV-7/8/9/10 kits, rivet and bolt holes are pre-punched into all the
parts. It is hard to overstate just how much labor and difficulty
matched-hole pre-punching saves. All part alignments, fastener spacings and
measurements are set at the factory. When the builder aligns the holes, the
parts must be in the correct position. An RV builder is assembling an
airplane, not building one from scratch."
