From 2019 (YouTube Edition): Company Updates Its Program For Highly Modifying Lancair IV-P Airframes RDD Enterprises, a company that was created to modify Lancair IV-P airplanes into a safer, longer-rage bird, provided Aero-TV with an update about the program at AirVenture. According to David McRae, the owner of RDD Enterprises, the LX7 is designed to be a faster and safer aircraft than the IV-P from which it is built. The company will help a buyer find a suitable donor airplane, from which the wings and tail are removed. The company installs an entirely new wing and tail, as well as new avionics and other upgrades. McRae said that the work is considered a "Major Modification" by the FAA, so the original builder of the IV-P is still listed as the manufacturer in the FAA records.
