Hi List,  

   

Yesterday, Saturday Aug. 10, at 1:08 PM , after 3 years and 4 months N601EX took off uneventfully, climbed to about 2000 ft and spend about an hour doing turns, slow flight, near stalls, climbs and descents and returned for a very smooth landing.  Needless to say I wasn’t quite as calm as the airplane was.  

I want to thank everyone on the list, I didn’t post that often but I read the list almost everyday.  

What was amazing was during each phase that I went through the list subject was what I needed, especially DAR inspection, practical flight test, first flight.  

   

Thanks again,  

David

Dave,



Congratulations!  I had my first flight almost 3 weeks ago and I am still riding on cloud nine.  Now do a good overall inspection, vacuum out the ever-present chips that got loosened out of their hiding places, check your prop nut torques and get back up in the air.  Repeat your first flight plan to re-affirm the characteristics that you either forgot or missed because you were so darned excited to be flying.



Way to go!
