All went well with good chase plane coverage by Stu "Falcon" McCurdy. She flew staight and fast.

Now moving to the wheel fairings...and still grinning.

Congrats Deene!

Say hello to the other GTU guys for me.

My memory is telling me you paint job looks alot like your old BD-4. Is that right or am I really getting old?

Congrats Deene! It is one beautiful airplane. Tanya and I were calling it "The Green Machine" all evening.

Another congratulations Deene. After 5+ years on my QB -8 and still not done I have unbounded admiration for your completion! Pretty plane. Have fun. Bill

Deene,

Oops, looks like I jumped the gun when I listed you as flying when Rick did his first flight, but not by much.

Ok, here's your congratulations! Job well done.

Tracy.
