Here is a combination of multiple sections, but mainly focusing on the floor pans, access covers and all the stuff that is helping me nearly complete the baggage area, floors and sides to the RV10. I also show and discuss how I ran conduit for my electrical system.

An Uncompromising Build - Matt Dralle's - RV-8 N998RV - A Project Documentary 2023 - Subscribe to MattsRV8
This is a documentary of the building of my RV-8, N998RV "Ruby Vixen". There are some epic air-to-air shots from an R-44 helicopter (piloted by Matt Smith of Leading Edge Aviation in Bend Oregon). This video was a lot of fun to make and produce. Thanks to Jeff Chorney and Marc Diaz of Media Mindscape for their outstanding talents on the 4k video project!

GoPros & Grass Strips - Fun in a Cessna 172 - VansAircraftBuilders.com
We as Aircraft Builders, need to take time and get out and fly, just as reminder of how great it will be one day to fly an Airplane that we built ourselves. Today we flew into Cedar Mills Airport (3T0) in Gordonville, Texas . A beautiful and well-kept grass strip worth checking out. Just a short walk to the Pelican's Landing Waterfront Restaurant.
