Hi all,
I'd like to be able to give a confident statement about the statistical structural integrity of the Vans RV series of planes.
There's already a good number of posts on this forum about this, but I'm looking for accident reports (or lack thereof) in particular.
Other than the Vans RV-3 (before new spar), I can't find any instances of an RV experiencing a structural failure when operated within design limits (below Vne, within G-limits).
Does anyone else have any data or research either to confirm this, or to the contrary?
