Three years, 1634 slow build hours, 2 cross country moves, Kit# 71234 became an airplane today on 7/8/2006. N527DL flew straight with no issues. I was waiting for the infamous heavy wing, but it never happened. Weighing in at 1034 lbs without paint or wheel pants, all systems were normal with no corrections required. Flying behind the Superior XP-IO-360 with horizontal induction, 3-blade Catto prop , Dynon EFIS, GRT EIS4000, it just leaped off the runway. What a thrill!
Thanks to my wonderful wife Nann for being so supportive, my twin boys Drew & Mike for always helping Dad when he needed a bucking buddy. Thanks to Van?s for a great kit, Van?s Air Force/Yahoo forum for always helping out with quick support. A special thanks to Dan Checkoway for a fabulous website which I frequented many times over the last 3 years.
I know it?s been said many times but, ?keep bucking those rivets?, it?s well worth it and the 7 is a true joy to fly.
