Van's RV-12IS Aircraft 2020s
The Vans RV-12IS is the updated RV-12 branch for buyers who want a modern light-sport-style RV with refinements over the earlier RV-12. It remains a two-seat recreational aircraft, so the buy decision is about build quality, engine installation, avionics, paperwork, and light-aircraft mission fit rather than raw speed. Compared with the RV-12, the RV-12IS is the newer evolution; compared with RV-7A or RV-6A aircraft, it is the lighter LSA-oriented choice.
