				I'm very happy to report that yesterday, 5 Jan 2014 N601A successfully flew for the first time.  The plane flew very well and the Corvair performed awesome with no surprises.  The only issue I had was my iEFIS only indicated about 40Kts airspeed so I think I have the AOA/pitot hoses crossed; it was not a problem since I had my iPad with Foreflight to refer to.  As for now, I am pretty happy!

				Congratulations Steve. I have a 601 HDS that I bought from the builder in 2009 and I love it. I think that the 601 HDS is an under-appreciated design.
