She Fly's !!!

On the 24th July 2013 at 16:17 Local Time G-IRPW finally lifted her wheels from the surface of Wombleton Air Field in Yorkshire, UK. First flight was carried out by Very professional Pilot Ivan Shaw. Ivan's first report on landing is,

      "She fly's beautifully with no problems, balanced well and flight straight and level" 

There are a few miner tweets required but nothing major required.



The Build was started on 20th December 2005. Total build time 7 years 7 Months 4 days and counting. Total hours 1800 Approx. 

   I would like to to take this opportunity to say thank you to all who have given their support over the years.

First, my Wife, Adele.

If I have missed someone, this is not intentional as, a first flight make the brain become very cloudy or is that the brain is in the clouds?

Hi! Richard 

I somehow must start reading messages like the Chinese, bottom up .

I just congratulated Mike Davies so probably he  had a hand in it but I

didn't intend to steel your show...for G-IRPW Good show. And now take care ,

my mentor advised to always "keep scared "!
