N946PM First Flight
September 6 was the day. The smoke from California eased up for a day and my 7 year quick build 9A finally took flight. Now, phase I starts with a 75NM radius around Fallon, NV. New signature file coming soon...

John, congrats on the accomplishment! As a fellow 9A builder who just completed a 7 year project, well done. Phase 1 is a blast, Phase 2 gets even better.
Have fun, be safe and gather lots of data as you test all aspects of flight during your fly off.

Congratulations John. I finished my project almost 3 years ago to the date, on the eve of the Reno Air Races. It was really hard being grounded a week for the air races lol!
