New One!!!
We flew Mark Yellen's RV8 this morning. He has been working on it for about 5 years. It flew straight and true. And will be very fast, once we get all the pants and fairings on.
I did the first flight, with Roy Geer flying chase in the 'Borrowed Horse' . Mark was in the rear of the 'Horse' taking pictures.
No Runs! No Drips! No Errors! that is #43 for me and my team here at RV Central. Wow! what a run.
Thanks Mark, Roy, Carol, and Steve!!! We have a winner in this plane.

Mark flew his New RV8 this morning. We installed the wheel pants before his flight.
He reported 160 knots indicated and 173 true airspeed at 24 sqd
Said he has never posted on this web site, so it is just me.
