Yesterday I completed the last of the 40 hours of my Phase 1 Flight Testing period. It's been a great way to get introduced to the plane, learn the nuances and each and every flight had at least one or more squawks of items that need attention. So I developed a task list and made sure I knew what needed to be done before the next flight as well as what else needed to be tested.
As the flights progressed, more and more of the systems and instruments were brought online, tested and incorporated into the flight profile.
I haven't had any major squawks and most of the items for the last 15-20 hours have been small items (Bluetooth phone volume needs to higher, learn how to do hot starts better, etc...)
My wife is psyched for her first flight today and I am looking forward to venturing outside of the 100NM radius for a change. At 170+ Knots, that's a pretty small range.
