The side-by-side RV-6 and its cousin, the tricycle gear RV-6A were introduced in 1986 and soon became the best-selling kit aircraft to date.
While Van’s no longer offers RV-6/6A Empennage Kits, Van’s continues to supply the needed parts to thousands of builders who are finishing RV-6/6As. New ones still fly with regularity.
Soon after the RV-4 proved that a two seat RV was a practical and exciting airplane, prospective customers began asking for a side-by-side RV.
When the demand became too big to ignore, Vans Aircraft went back to the drafting board. Initially, they were reluctant, because they felt that a wider, and inevitably heavier, airplane would suffer in comparison to the sleek centerline seating airplanes. It wasn’t long before their quest for optimization surfaced again. Using what they had learned from the RV-3 and RV-4, and striving in every way Vans knew to avoid losing performance and designed the RV-6.
Vans made it 43 inches wide and gave it a generous baggage compartment behind the seats. The wing on the RV-4 worked so well that there was no point in changing it. The canopy was a forward opening bubble that closed almost seamlessly and, like all RVs, the visibility is superb.
The builder of this particular kit passed away and the heirs wish to sell the kit and all tools to a builder who is able to finish the kit in the way he would have wanted it to be finished. Quality and craftsmanship were extremely important values during the construction of this aircraft.
