Brief Description:  First Flight

My good friend and experienced builder came down and helped me put all the inspection covers and the cowling back on. We double checked everything and put her to bed for an early Saturday morning first flight. The next morning, with Joel monitoring by hand held radio, I took her out on the runway, pointed her into the wind and gave it full throttle. She was off the ground in less than 300 feet and climbed away!! My CHT and oil temp slowly climbed to the maximum caution range so I had to cut my climb and first flight a little short. After about 20 minutes I came in for one of the best landing in my life :-))) Now I'll be messing with the cowling to see about getting the best airflow for cooling. The price of being a pioneer!
