Tony & Anna's RV-7 Construction Videos

Today Anna and I are going to show you how easy it is to hang the Lycoming engine on your Van's Aircraft RV project in about 12 minutes.
Over the years I've read many forum posts about how difficult it is to hang the Lycoming Dynafocal engine on an RV. How many people do you need? How many hours does it take? How hard is it to get all the bolts in? How many cases of beer do I need to buy, etc, etc.
Well, watch while we get it done in about 12 minutes and I guarantee you, this is the first time Anna has ever installed any type of engine. It's so easy I could almost call it child's play!

I can’t understand how you do it so easily. I attached two Lycoming to my RV8´s . Holes never aligned, struggle to insert bolts and chose the right order .

A little about me, I am currently in A&P school for my A&P license I still have a year left but I want to be ready to take my orals and practical's and study for them. I am very determine and passionate about aviation. That being said do you guys have any advice for me for the future to come?

Find the local EAA chapter in your area and go to a meeting. Introduce yourself and tell them you are in A&P school and are looking for learning experiences, don't be afraid to ask if anyone needs a helper. Most chapters have many very experienced, long time aviation enthusiasts (pilots and mechanics) who are willing to help the younger generation get off to a good start. Best of luck, hard work pays off!
