You've heard the engineers talk about the RV-15's updated wing structure and control systems, seen the wing static tested, and now it's time to "build a pair" for further testing and that all-important flight over to AirVenture this summer. It's an all-hands project as the engineering build team creates a fresh set of wings for the RV-15 test airplane.
