Vans Confirms 1000 RV-10 Kits Shipped To Builders

206 RV-10's Are Flying Today

Back on May 29, 2003, Van's Aircraft of Aurora, Oregon, announced the successful first flight of their new kit aircraft, the RV-10.  In August of the same year, they handed the first RV-10 order forms across the counter to customers lined up at the AirVenture airshow in Oshkosh, Wisconsin.

A little over six years later, RV-10 kit number 1000 has been shipped to a customer in Irving, TX.

206 RV-10s are known to have flown, for an average of one new airplane in the air every eleven days since it was introduced.

The RV-10 is a fast, roomy, fixed-gear four-place airplane with performance comparable to many production airplanes with retractable landing gear, bigger engines -- and far higher prices.  It is part of the well-known line of RVs, including the RV-4, RV-6, RV-7, RV-8, RV-9 and RV-12.  Altogether, 6,340 RVs have flown in thirty countries around the world.
