Finally, after a few months of waiting, a huge semi arrived! Well, I guess it wasn’t really that long of wait, considering the business changes Van’s was going through. I was lucky to get one of the first shipments in 2024, which thankfully means no laser cut parts will be in this build. Vans’s announced they stopped shipping all LCP’s around July 4th, 2023.
The freight company (ABF) did a great job of delivering with zero damage. They had a lift gate which is important as one of the crates was around 350lb.
We received the empennage, wing, and fuselage kits! We’re still waiting on the finish kit, but won’t need that for a while anyway. It’s going to take a lot of time to inventory and organize all the parts before the real work begins.
