    I'm a bit confused on my 95 Rans S7 project. The fuel placards near the gas caps say capacity 10 gallons. On the wing root it says 7.6 gal capacity. I do know my tanks are the plastic tanks that came out...

    Joining the group as I'm looking to find either an unfinished project, a wrecked project or just a plane so I can complete it to flying. I'd like to expose teens to aviation in hopes of spurring them on towards missionary aviation and teach them some things I learned when I was a missionary pilot. I like the S7S, S6, S20, or S21. I got to try out the Rans S21 at the 2023 Midwest LSA Expo. Fun!

    jaydub I ended up picking up a 100hp 1995 S7 "short tail" for a good deal. I'm happy and it's not damaged too badly. Hoping to have it ready to fly again by Spring of 24.

    Thought I'd join in case I can provide any info. I have about 1,800 hours in TU206G models and maintained them for 7 years.
