    First flight! (actually back in November...). Happy day!!! Test pilot Jared was awesome - nerves of steel!



    The adventure of building and flying a plane is absolutely incredible...!

    Since that first fight, the test flights have been great. A/P calibrated, GPS all working fine, scenery is fantastic!

    Next adventure: Building a cam over wheel system so I can start ski flying! More to come on that!

    Got my panel from Midwest Panel Builders today, very happy with the end result and the process of working with Steve and Adam.
