Wyatt Vans RV-9
Manufacturer: Experimental
The Van's RV‑9 is a two‑seat, single‑engine, low‑wing homebuilt aircraft sold in kit form. It comes in a tail‑wheel version (RV‑9) and a nose‑wheel version (RV‑9A). The design features a high‑aspect‑ratio wing with a Roncz airfoil, giving it a low stall speed and docile handling. It is similar in size to the RV‑6 and shares many parts with the RV‑7.
