Basically I got tired of waiting on the swedish EAA to approve my continuance on the Glasair build so I bought a flying RV-4 in the meantime.

It is located in Ca and as thing look right now i will go there before Sun and Fun and pick it up and then fly to Lakeland in it. Partly because shipping is cheaper, faster and safer from the east coast if shipping to europe. Also because it gives me the chance to visit some long not seen friend on the way over.

Accordning to preliminary flightplanning it is only 14 hours of flight between Ca and Fl but flying over the mountains in a pure VFR aircraft might require a lot of waiting for good weather. Also flying a taildragger that is new to me from concrete runways limits the crosswind component I want to handle.
