N159LG is a plane!

[rph142]

After 26 months of steady building, my collection of aluminum is finally a plane! Adam Valdez performed a thorough and mostly uneventful airworthiness inspection this morning. It was challenging dealing with relentless back orders, price hikes and a few laser cut parts, but in the end it was worth it. Admittedly I build to build and flying is icing on the cake. I’ll be flying it unpainted while I wait for my paint slot at cascade customs. Now for the first flight!
