My third experimental aircraft build, I began this Van’s Aircraft RV-12iS project in late 2018. It is kit #121151. Due to changes in both my employment path and my retirement plans I’ve elected to discontinue the project at this point and offer the partially completed project for sale.

I live near Everett, WA and have purchased the first three kits in the project: empennage/tailcone kit, wing kit, and fuselage kit. All of the kits have options from Van’s which are detailed below. I have completely unpacked all three kits and have no interest in attempting to repack them for shipment. Therefore I offer the kit for sale on a “you must pick it up” basis. Though I intended to build this kit as an E-AB I have made no customizations yet which would preclude you from completing it as an SLSA. See this page for info on the difference in the two certification categories.

If you’ve been considering an RV-12iS project and have the means to transport it then this could be an excellent opportunity to enjoy a nice savings and get a head start with the emp/tailcone now finished. I also have some tools and other related materials needed for the build that I’m willing to discuss with a prospective buyer.
