Well, after 4 years ,2 months, and 18 days the little yeller bird left the nest to check out the view from aloft.... and she liked it
It was a typical Ottawa winter day; wind howling from the west, -3 C, ocassional snow showers and low cielings but she did not complain at all. Climbed up to 3000' AGL, did a few orbits, seen 165 Kts @ 2500 rpm with no pants, slow flight at 70 Kts, and then landed after a 22 minute flight.
She is gonna be a performer!!! Now that the first flight is out of the way, the real test phase begins
