And crucially few women will want to go anywhere in that way
Some might say that's a bonus. My wife for instance has absolutely no desire to go flying in any aircraft, she just doesn't get it
. Going on expensive holidays on the other hand - that's more like it
.
The RV7 is a better machine for the profile
roomy enough plenty of load space. The 4 is just for fun and for people who like flying on their own
.
The RV8 is a big RV4, and truly only for the people who want a tandem machine. That's what I would want, I like Tandem. Side by side is for work
.
On the Socata parts, I think you probably hit the nail on the head with regard to the maint shop but that's not something I would discuss in an open forum when folk know who I am
