How To Buy a Used RANS S-7
By Dave Prizio
Looking for a plane to give you backcountry access with Super Cub performance that you can fly as a Sport Pilot? Or are you just looking for a tandem two-seater that is fun to fly and easy on the budget? If so, the RANS S-7 series is worth a hard look. With over 900 kits sold and 600+ flying they are not as plentiful as RV-6s, but there are always some for sale for the used airplane buyer.
The most common version of this model is the S-7S, with planes carrying the S-7 designation being early models of the series. RANS also sold some factory-built S-7LS planes and an S-7C version certified under the primary category rule.
