Congratulations to you and Andy!...and, I wouldn't call that an ugly landing. The important thing is what happens after the first bounce, and you did great! I was disappointed, though, to see that you edited out the inverted ribbon cut...

From: "tools" I, too, just got done with a hop, and landed like that. In the Piet, it's cool, feels about right. The -88 however... Not so much. What a cool give and take community you live in there! Awesome. Is that the same Pitts we see attacking you all the time?

I knew the clouds were gonna break as the day progressed so I hopped up, made a cup of tea, clothed and was at the airport by 7:00. In the air by 7:20 for one of the most delightful flights I've had. Nothing special, but the air was cool and smooth and "RE-PIET" just wanted to climb like there was no tomorrow. Turned towards the house as the sun started finding holes in the clouds and flew around the house over Marci and she was having her coffee on the deck. Landed by 7:45 and was home by 8:10 to start the day. Keep building, it's really worth it.

What is all the tape on the trailing edge for, steadying? I sure like the view it gives.
