I have myself a new airplane!
What a strange feeling. After 2700hrs and almost 7 1/2 year I have built an airworthy airplane. Thanks to everyone who helped and provided valuable advice. VAF was invaluable please support this marvelous source of information.
I appreciate Vic Syracuse doing my inspection. He said it was his first inspection ever that he couldn't find even one squawk.

Yes, the workmanship and attention to detail is impeccable! He should have a very reliable and fun airplane, and I even think his wife might start flying again as PIC once she rides in this 8!

Well done! And if Vic says such nice things, it truly must be so.
