On sunday June 6, 2004 RV-9A 90219 made it's first flight and returned two more
times to the air the same day after a close inspection totalling 3.5 hours on
the Hobbs. All went well and as expected the plane flies like a dream! Completely
stable with only minor trim and only about 1/2 a bubble in yaw which is
normal for most RV's according to my flight saftey advisor. Cruise came in at
170mph with only 2400 rpm and landing was very comfortable. The RV 9 likes 65
to 70 mph over the numbers touching on the mains letting the nose come down
when it stops flying. I had the chance to fly a Grumman Tiger as part of my transition
training. I'd highly recommend finding one it helped me come to grips
with being to high and to fast on final and getting used to a castering nose
wheel. Anyway my hat's off to Van for designing a truly beautiful airplane!!!
I'll have some photos available shortly.
