Default RV-8 sighted at KBVY Beverly airport

Yesterday I went up to the airport after work to kick the tires (literally - I checked the tire pressure), and go for a flight. The flight was great.

As I drove to the hangar I saw this:



N86472

Wished the pilot was around I would have liked to say hello.

Very nice looking airplane.

That's the Devastator of Glen Salmon out of 53VG.

Gregg---how was the flight, and any pressure issues? Did the mech gauge match the EFIS?

Flight was great. Zero pressure issues. Mech matched the EFIS with the exception of the higher EFIS response/number of digits shows a bobble where the mech gauge doesn't move. But that's usual.
