On this beautiful Memorial Day, Bruce Bohannon, Eagle's Nest Director and professional test pilot, conducted the first flight on Clear Springs HS 5th RV-12 build; RV-12iS N922EN s/n:121088. To the credit of an outstanding mentor team, David Grover, Kirk Taylor, and Roger Elder, and a highly motivated team of PLTW Aerospace Engineering students, Bruce reported the test flight as "All Aces... No Squaks". Following are a few photos from today's first flight. The "inaugural first flight" party will take place when phase-1 is completed; planning for later this week.
