After four plus years N333GR (#40301) finally took the weight off the wheels. Like most previously described first flights this too was uneventful. I was struck by the forward view (I found my self constantly wanting to climb since the "normal" view looked like a dive) and the beauty of seeing the runway all the way thru the pattern (all previous time in a 172). I was too tumescent to remember anything else. I do have some issues with the GRT EFIS and EIS but I think they are related to my lack of computer skills and the less than clear (at least to me) GRT set-up documents. If anyone has advice on GRT set-up please let me know. Jay Rowe

Congratulations!
What efis is this, the sport or the horizon? Some builders have reported that it is very sensitive to the field sensor being in a magnetic field-free environment.

Congratulations Jay! Can hardly wait to be where you are. I am 75 hrs into my slow build. It is going to be the same for me...all 172 time except for some flights with a friend in his -9A.
