Tom's RV-8

To some people Tom's RV-8 is just an airplane, to Tom's family and friends it's much more that that. It was his dream!

My friend and EAA Chapter 582 Vice-President Tom Walsh was tragically killed in an automobile accident. On January 2nd 2007 he was getting the mail from the box in front of his house when he was struck by a car and killed instantly.

He was building a slow-build RV-8 kitplane from Van's Aircraft.

After Tom's death it was decided by his family and friends that his RV-8 should be finished in his memory and honor. Our website will document the completion of Tom's RV-8. Please visit www.tomsrv8.com for more information about our project.

Thank you!
