After 14 years of part time building as funds and time allowed, and a significant effort during the last six months, 70231 is finally an airplane proven so by it's first flight today which was largely uneventful. Just like we like them.
Many thanks go my wife (Cheryl), kids, and many friends for helping and tolerating this activity. Also to Van's Aircraft and Doug for this site which came along after I started building.
