AIRCRAFT BUILD NUMBER 1
Aircraft build number 1 is a Van's Aircraft RV-12iS Experimental Light Sport Aircraft. Our initial group of students started work on this aircraft in September 2022. To date, we have finished the tail cone and empenage, fuseplage, and wings subkits and are currently working on the finish subkit (interior, flight control linkages, landing gear, canopy and such).
Aircraft build number 1 is a Van's Aircraft RV-12iS built to Van's requirements for a youth educational build program. The aircraft will have the ROTAX 912iS engine and VFR avionics. This will be the first aircraft our students will build from start to finish. Joy To The Child, Inc. DBA Teen Aviation of New Jersey is registered as a Youth Educational Build Program with Van's Aircraft.
Aircraft build number 2 is a Legacy RV-12 airframe donated to another youth educational build program. We purchased the Fuselage, Wings, and Empenage/Tailcone sub kits in 2021 at the beginning of our program. It has been useful to us for a number of years as a reference for our first build. Our plan is to bring the airframe up to date with the current RV-12iS fuel tank and other modifications, and install a ULPower engine in place of the Rotax 912 ULS engine. Because of the modifications, we will certify the aircraft under the Experimental Amateur Built catagory.
