RV-Pilots.eu

The European website for pilots who fly an airplane designed by Van´s Aircraft

Get involved

This website is intended to enable European RV-Pilots to get in contact with each other - within a country but also across borders. There are many RV-Groups on Facebook or Whatsapp, but most of them are limited to a certain group of people and it is hard to get in contact with them or even know that a group like that exists.

Register your Email-Address, enter your homebase and a range. Whenever a new event comes up in that area around your homebase, you are going to receive an update by email. This way, it is easy to also schedule short-term meetings.

There will be no advertisement, no spam and your Email-Address will not be forwarded to anyone.
Not (yet) an RV-Pilot but still interested in these airplanes? Some events might also be suitable for guests.

    There would be a fly-in at Breitscheid EDGB on May 1st, 2025. It is a general fly-in for all types of aircraft, but we have agreed with the board that we will follow up with an RV meeting in 2025. In addition to the usual parking together, etc., we are coming up with a few special features for the RV crews. Otherwise there is the option of staying overnight in the hotel "boarding house" on site or in a tent, and there will be breakfast on May 2nd. We would be very happy if we could get lots of RVs to EDGB.

  • FunFlyin



    To promote General Aviation in the Netherlands, we organized a Flyin last year at the airport of Middenzeeland, EHMZ, in concert with KNVvL, the Stichting Pionier Hangaar and airport manager Remco Belderok of Middenzeeland. 
    It was a success. This year we will again organize this Flyin in

    Middenzeeland EHMZ from June 9th to 11th 2023!

    See www.funflyin.nl and this file

    We would like to invite all RV owners. After the enormous success of last year, we have set up a foundation, the FunFlyin Foundation. It is a non-profit foundation, relying on donations with the sole purpose of promoting aviation in the broadest sense of the word. That is how we have also disconnected it from the KNVvL. Just like KNVvL, AOPA-NL and other associations, the European RV community cannot be missed on this Flyin. Our dream is to be able to organize an annual event in the future that is accessible to everyone and that every aviation enthusiast wants to attend. In addition, the relevant sector parties would like to and can be a part of. 

    Kind regards, on behalf of our FunFlyin, Tim Weert.

About us

RV-pilots.eu is all about friendship and passion.

Building or buying an RV is an adventure that not just results in having a great performing airplane, but usually also gets you in contact with many other builders and new friends.

Flying a plane that you built on your own is a big satisfaction and sharing your passion with fellow pilots, builders and other aviation enthusiasts makes it even better.

With support from pilots in the US, some of us have started flying together for professional formation training - a new challenge and a chance to further improve as an aviator. Flying in formation represents both the excitement and beauty of flying and the joy of sharing the passion with other pilots.

Over the last months and years, we were able to establish a network of pilots and soon had planes from Germany, Switzerland, France and Italy attend our trainings. And there are also non-pilots who joined and supported us with their skills as photographers or graphic designers!

When you build your RV and spend many hours cutting metal and setting rivets, it can be hard to focus on anything else besides building. RV-pilots.eu is the attempt, to let you enjoy the completed project even more by sharing your passion with new friends.

And that's the spirit of this project: no advertising, no fees and no intention to make money out of it. Our aim is to organize fly-ins and training events and to share our passion with other aviation enthusiasts.

Welcome aboard!
