RV10 First Fly

[[email protected]]

Congratulations to Dr Jeff Justis & his son Jeff Justis on their jointly built RV10 first flight at KUOX Saturday the 8th of October. Dr Justis will be 90 in January so none of us have excuses. Dr Justis gave me my first flying lesson over 40 years ago in a Champ he & Jeff rebuilt, Jeff & I graduated from engineering undergraduate school together, they took me to Oshkosh in 1982, Dr Justis attended the first flight of my F1 rocket 2004, and so many more connections. Jeff chased Dr Justis in their RV6 that flew in 2010 after a 23 year build. I’m still trying to figure out all the implications & significance. Very special day to watch father & son do such a thing & I appreciate their mentoring on my journey.
