I know a guy who had one of these Rans S-12. One day he clipped a bobwire fence in his backyard on landing and showed me the riveted patch he did to it. A couple months later he had engine problems during flight and made a quick landing. He worked on the engine for a while and decided to takeoff. The airplane stalled on takeoff and he plummeted to the ground. He has pin's and screws and what not from head to toe.
I still think this Rans is awesome.
