Captain Terry Lutz, experimental test pilot and former test pilot for Airbus and builder of an RV-8 said: "I observed the construction of this airplane from the first time it was in a hangar and on the landing gear. A lot of work went into the cockpit layout and design and it shows when sitting in the left seat. The engine installation is very well done, and to a very high aviation standard. Fit and finish of the airframe is also excellent, and well above average. Its an airplane that can immediately be flown and enjoyed. Carl Franz, EAA Technical Counselor (and also known as the "nitpicker") assisted Terry and myself for the annual condition inspection, October, 2015. When the annual was completed, I asked Carl for his opinion of this aircraft. His response was "I"m impressed."
