It finally happened! It FLEW!!! ( last Saturday actually)
4.5 years seems a long time ago since I drilled the 1st hole in the empenage. But in reality, the time has zipped by. The years have been filled with enjoyable building, problem solving and meeting new and interesting people.
My project has been a success due to the many people that have given so freely of there time, advice and skill to help me achieve this dream and goal.
Now the next challenge of high oil temps will be solved in short order (I hope) and its time to fly, fly and then do some flying.
BTW, on a test flight early this morning I over flew the town (on runway heading) and woke my 17yr old son up from his teenage slumber. He said later "Dad you woke me up with the loud plane of yours! I looked out the window and it was great. It reminding me of all the cool planes we seen and heard at Oshkosh last year" Cant get a better compliment that that!
Keep on building and enjoy the journey.
