Good Morning:

RV-12 N512SG was sold last week.

Another covid induced fatality.

Thanks to all the students & renters!

There is another RV-12 S-LSA that will be based in SE Wisconsin, so if you want to fly an RV-12 contact me via email: jpfli at me dot com & I will put you in touch with the owner of this RV12.

Learn more about flying the versatile and fun RV-12 here:

The RV–12 is easy to underestimate. It’s so tiny, so disproportionate, so cartoonish, that it appears to have sprung to life not from engineering blueprints, but from the fanciful pages of a Dr. Seuss book. A toy like this could be made by Fisher-Price.

Take a look at the Van's RV-12 as an affordable, fun tool for flight training.

First flight of a new kit jet. Perfecting techniques with a POV camera. Low, slow, and retro in the Everglades. Cruising over Pittsburgh.

The RV-12 will not be available to rent for another 2 weeks even though Spring City has opened their rental fleet for use.

There are 2 reasons the RV-12 will NOT be on the schedule:

1) We are developing an RV-12 specific disinfecting protocol - unlike a legacy airplane where the disinfectant spray can be liberally applied everywhere the RV-12 with its modern electronics is not a candidate for sq**rt and pray application of disinfectant. Additionally the glass on the electronic screens needs special micro-fiber cloths to be used for cleaning and disinfecting to prevent damage to the screens. When that protocol has been completed, it will be available by video for all RV-12 renters, students, and instructors.

2) The Surgeon General has recommended that for at least another week Americans refrain from even going to the grocery store. While I personally have doubts about the necessity of all the CCP-19 precautions until such time as there is evidence to the contrary I will follow the most conservative guidelines. Flying the RV-12 is certainly less critical the grocery shopping.

Spring City Aviation is closed and therefore the RV-12 is not available for rent for the duration of the Corona Virus lock down.
