My RV-9A became an airplane today over Abilene, Texas after 7 years and 2 months of building. My transition training in the the RV-10 with Alex DeDominicis really got me ready. I received my airworthiness certificate 6 days ago with Mel Asberry whom I highly recommend. Other than a malfunctioning tachometer, the flight was flawless. This is one nice airplane to fly. The landing was so smooth I wasn't sure I was on the ground until the nosewheel came down.

Let the fun begin.

Awsome, Steve!

I'm sure that I will work with more determination as I listen to you on the radio in my "hangar/shop".

Good going & happy flying.

Attaboy Steve,

Now contact Vans and let them know so the 9/9A hobbs meter can tick up another digit.
