After 2 years and 20 days.
On 10-26-09 at 4:30 PM N829GW took it's maiden flight with myself at the controls. I flew for 40 minutes and all went well. I now need to fly off 40 hours before I can start taking trips and passengers. And then My wife's honey dew list kicks into high gear.
That RVgrin just keeps giving and giving
What a great airplane

Congratulations. Of course now you need to get those wheel pants and
fairings on, mount interior panels and all that other almost finished
stuff that you showed us in OSH. Of course if you work it
right...those tasks could put off that honey dew list for awhile.

Great looking plane.... Congrats to the max. Is the weather going to let you get those hours flown off? Another one joins the group. This is great watching this family grow. Pretty soon we can hold our own flyin.

Outstanding achievement and a great looking paint job - and panel
Can I steal the paint design????
Be very very careful with the test flying. Do not rush it. Pull the cowl every few hours - inspect - double check - be careful. I am now at 16 hrs and had some attention getters like - high airframe vibration - errors on CHT/EGT readings - and a fuel leak. They are all solvable, but caution is paramount. good luck

Congratulations. A beautiful plane and a great looking panel. It looks
like you got one of the 4500's. We're still waiting for ours. How does the
4500 work?

Thanks to all for the nice comments. As for the AFS 4500 things are working well. Working with Rob and AFS with new software updates.
They have been great. Love them
Rick as for the rudder trim it looks pretty neutral so far just a very little
bit of right rudder trim but time will tell. I will keep you updated.

I got some inspiration for you. I was flying back home yesterday with a
41 Knot tailing cross wind indicating 219 Knots (251 MPH) over the
ground. I heard a 737 request a different flight level as he was
battling a 108 Knot headwind and the controller told him that was a
Cirrus indicating 100 Knots faster than the 737 flying the opposite
direction! Yahoo!
