It's been a wonder flight, but it's time to land.  I am re-directing my efforts and would love to find a new home for my plane.  It not familiar with her, here's the skinny:

- extensively-modified control system with high-quality connections to all control surfaces for precise control feel and durability- proven & zero issues in over 300 hours flight time
- expansive baggage space, similar to the newer 750 model- safely below and behind the seatback
- durable trailing-link nosegear design
- well-sealed, comfortable cabin, winter or summer (flaperon controls via sealed shafts + custom doors)
- easily removable bubble doors for delightful low & slow summer excursions
- proven direct-drive single-carburetor 120 hp Jabiru Generation-4 3300 6-cylinder engine, Sensenich W64ZK45 prop
- Garmin G3X with 2-axis A/P, ADSB in/out, GTR200 comm
- 200-250' takeoff & landing (solo, without slats), 100 mph TAS cruise @ 2750 rpm & 5gph at 2000' (easily exceeds VNE at altitude)
- Flux-capacitor and BS generators plus many other actual useful features!
- includes original 2-section slats with storage case, excellent custom-made Bruce's cover, additional high-pitch Sensenich W68CK32 prop, boost battery, extensive documentation including complete build log, AutoCAD files and all construction receipts
- well-documented on multiple YouTube videos, Flickr, and EAA builders log websites (search N701RX)
Awarded Oshkosh Bronze Lindy 2018 (third Lindy for builder- previous RV-6A and RV-7A) and Sun & Fun Grand Champion 2021 (particularly notable because of no judging previous year)
