    Default N415KD flys

    I took my SS7 up for the first flight this morning. It was a short flight because of oil temp and pressure readings not where i would like. Not sure how big an issue it is. But the plane felt great. Just a quick lap around the patch. Only went to 600' but wanted to keep going.
    A debt of gratitude goes to Louie (vetrem) for the training in his model 3; and coming out for the flight this morning, as well as my wife and dog.
    It's a good day! Ken

    Way to go. Happy for you. I am getting close for my first flight. Might make it before the end of the year if the weather holds. Beautiful airplane.
