Brief Description: Final checks - then FIRST FLIGHT!
And so endeth the building of Arion Lightning 19-7738! Peter Mitchell very kindly came up from Busselton to conduct the first flight for me (Peter has about 500 hours on his own Lightning). After a 10 minute shakedown flight, Peter landed to pick me up so I could do my first take-off. I plan to fly with a check pilot for the first few hours.
Lots still to do: re-rigging and further adjustments, but the basic build is complete.
Now to start enjoying the flying - the main reason for the build in the first place ...
