Note About Kit Aircraft
Tailwind primarily produces kit aircraft. The FAA often records the builder's name as the manufacturer for homebuilt aircraft, rather than the kit maker. This means many Tailwind aircraft may not appear in this listing. To find all aircraft of a specific model (e.g., all RV-6As), use the search page and search by model name.
