    My God, I have compiled a 6 min video but I can not, for the life of me get it to go anywhere except here on my computer. I'll keep trying.

    Okay, allow me to give some thanks to people who have made the endeavor a reality.
    The helpful hands that came through when I needed, the ground crew, My boys Kyle (on my left) and Tyler. My very supportive girlfriend (taking the photo) Melissa, who encouraged me to work on the plane often. Also, a Big Thanks to the Factory (everybody) who provided me with the awesome kit and manual. Last but not least, Paul Leaderbrand for getting me back into the air with a tailwheel endorsement after 25 years. I can't forget anyone here on the forum either. This forum has been invaluable. Thank You everyone for answering my questions and providing encouragement. Thanks Desertfox4 for allowing me to check in on your progress when I was in town. Looking forward to touring the desert with you. Of course Brian will need to come back to Chandler too. I know I have some work still ahead but I will be ready for the steep climb and the need for right rudder on the next flight. I am not sure I am ready for the deck angle should I fly at 65. I believe I was doing 70-75 on the first flight. Thats what I was aiming to do anyhow. I recall being a bit nose up trimmed and I was holding the nose down as to not get slow. Fun Fun Fun.
