Bad news from VAN’S
https://www.vansaircraft.com/2023/10...eid=710499227c
As the result of a number of factors, Van’s currently faces serious cash flow issues, which must be addressed quickly to ensure ongoing operations. We are confident we can work through this situation, but some changes are required.

During this period, shipments will be delayed, kit orders will not be processed, and refunds will not be issued. We will be unable to conduct factory tours and demo flights.

I still love flying the RV that I built, but there's no way I'd build another.
