#144 Flies!!!
Almost exactly one year after we started. The honors were done by Troy himself. He dropped in on his way back from Oshkosh.
Woo Hoo!

Rick,
Congratulations! A very pretty bird!
Does it fly as good as it looks?

Thanks for the inspiration!

There are many things that happen really fast when you are
flying an airplane. There is no sense in rushing any of the others.
I would much rather be looking down at the runway, than up at it.

Yes, treating me well and I'm having a great time with it. (and right about now I'm REALLY glad I installed a heater...)
Yes, that's a Motion LS800 tablet computer on the dashboard running Anywhere map. It has some nice capabilites but it's a bit awkward to use when flying (you have to use the stylus, a finger won't work). When I first installed it, it would blue screen about 5 min into the flight. I replaced the disk drive and it would last maybe 10. I finally put a solid state drive in it and it seems to have fixed the problem. I can't say that I would recommend it to anyone though. What I have on my Christmas wish list is one of the new Garmin 696's (fat chance....)

Rick,
I just noticed your back windows. I have made
preperations to add some there, myself. Would
you add them to the next Just, if you were to
build another one?
Stay safe...
