Thumbs UP!
Congratulations! And the photos look great! And I really like the photo of the landing. The mains have just touched and are smoking.

That's huge, Derek! Congrats.   How long did you stay up for? Any heavy wing tendencies? I agree about the smoking-tires-on-touchdown shot, a classic.

I flew for a good ".5" around the airport. She flew hands off and ball centered, surprising considering the wingtips aren't perfect with the ailerons. Glad I didn't fuss over it before flying first. CHT's are high, as to be expected I suppose on a new engine.

Congratulations!
Perfect outfit for first flight I like the shoes. The smoke on touchdown shows you are hot! Enjoy
