 I am fortunate that my 25-year-old son works as a video editor in  nearby Scottsdale, and was able to stop by for the first flight of N601GE.   This link is to the youtube version of the video he made from the footage he  shot that morning.  I think it came out rather well!

Great 1st flight video. I kind of needed that video after spending Sunday afternoon doing registration paperwork.



Very good first landing. I hope mine joins yours in the flying 601 category soon.

Nice Job Andy. That shine was unbelievable.  For some reason, standard gear XL's look so much better than tri-gear!  The tail wheel looks larger than normal... was that your design or the standard Zenith tail wheel?  The video also was great, especially the contrail... how did you do that? 



Send me or William and Grace some first flight photos for inclusion with the zenvair.com site.



Way to go!
