Today at 6:30 am I slipped the surly bonds of earth with my RV-7A for the first time. Plane behaved perfectly well for the short flight over Chino Airport. The flight was planned for yesterday but I had a magneto problem. I worked for 10 hours yesterday to solve this and another problem but eventually got the plane to purr like a kitten. Tomorrow I will look over the plane in detail and then get ready for the next flight. Time to celebrate with a beer or two.
