I made my first flight on May 19, 2011 . All is good. The IO-375 Aerosport engine and MT prop are great. The airplane has power and lots of it. CHT 400's, oil temp 180, and 160 kts with no wheel pants.

Definitely need to invest in a booster seat for that little Munchkin! Have fun 'splaining the whys and wherefores of Phase I to her.

Of course, in a few short years, she won't believe anything you say anyway. She's just roll her eyes and say, "What-EV-ER."

Congrats! Great looking bird.
