I got the following email message today.

Congratulations to Jim Percy for making the first flight of his beautifully crafted RV-7A. Jim's plane exhibits fine workmanship and seems to fly just fine.
I flew chase while he did about .5 orbiting south of CNO; nothing fell off, no smoke or liquids spewing. I'll send Jim some of the photos I took and maybe his father-in-law will post some of the video that he shot from the ground.
Jim features the typical Chino paint job that Sharpie, Wingnut, and the others who fly so much they don't have time to paint their planes. Hopefully, Jim will select some great colors for his plane; perhaps red???

The next email had this photo.
CNO is Chino California, USA. Dave's comment about painting red is becasue Dave's -8 is painted red.
Congradulations Jim!
