Van's RV-14

General Aviation and Light Aircraft

The Van's RV-14 is an American aerobatic kit aircraft designed by Richard VanGrunsven and produced by Van's Aircraft, introduced at AirVenture in July 2012 and supplied as a kit for amateur construction. Derived from the four-seat RV-10, it is a two-seat side-by-side aircraft with a bubble canopy and a cantilever low wing, designed to suit large pilots with a wider cabin, more baggage space, better visibility and a low landing speed from larger flaps. The RV-14 has conventional tailwheel gear and the RV-14A tricycle gear. It is built from aluminium sheet, and the airframe is designed around the Lycoming IO-390; the prototype used a 210 hp example. The kit uses pre-punched and pre-formed parts and pre-installed wiring to ease assembly. As of November 2022, 207 RV-14s had been completed and flown.
