First flight of RV-8 N84GN

Excellent!

Hi

Very well done to all concerned, excellent aeroplane, test flight and video!!

You should all be very proud!
 
Congrats!

Congrats Nicholas on a beautiful airplane and the first flight! It must feel incredible! I love the video, especially the tailwheel cam - I can almost feel the gravel in my teeth on take-off! :D
 
Nice! Looking forward to that day myself.

Putting on my instructor hat.
One note. The frequency 123.45 is not, I repeat, not to for general air to to use. The AIM lists 122.750 as the air to air freq for fixed wing aircraft.
I only mention it because I fly oceanic crossings where the freq 123.45 is approved for use and on any given weekend for the first hour of my crossing all I hear are guys trying to find each other in the air and the turbulence reports I want to hear are stepped on.

Please pass the word to all your friends.
