Follow along as I build a Van’s Aircraft RV-10 in my garage along with my husband! This is our first time building an airplane and I document our experiences throughout this process in my build videos as well as sharing helpful tips & tricks that we’ve learned, plus more videos about attending & camping at EAA’s AirVenture in Oshkosh, WI and other air shows. To keep up to date with our daily progress, follow me on Instagram @plane.lady where I share photos detailing what we are currently working on each day.
