    Subject: RV-9 First flight
    MessageCongratulations Bill. Reports such as yours inspire me, and I'll need plenty of inspiration before I'm done. My tail kit arrived just yesterday. I finished the inventory last night, and today I'll call Van's for the two missing parts.

Just incase you missed it, my first flight was this past Sunday. All went well and the airplane handles GREAT! Radomir Zaric took some great photos and posted them here: http://picasaweb.google.com/n777ty/FirstFlightN941WR I finally reduced the first takeoff and landing videos to a reasonable size. My wife took these with our Canon PowerShot SD600, nothing fancy but it worked: Take off: http://www.repucci.com/bill/basement/first_flight.wmv Landing: http://www.repucci.com/bill/first%20flight/the_first_landing.wmv That landing video really gives you an idea how much the RV-9 likes to float Bill
