As a non-builder owner, this is an excellent resource to have. Add in his other guide Are your nuts tight and you have a good baseline maintenance library for RV products.

Over the years of building an RV-8 I have learned a lot about construction methods. Now, as I am nearing first flight I need to learn about maintaining my aircraft. Vic’s new book fills a lot of the bill. How do I change tires? While it’s messy it is straightforward. Replacing the cam shaft? Probably not something I will do, but I now understand more about diagnosing a worn cam. I will use this as a guide for my first condition guidance.

Great for older RVs and Lycoming engines, hardly any reference to Rotax installations and nothing on the Rotax engine. Quite disappointed as most of the RVs I see are Rotax equipped.
