    Default I gave birth (at least, so it feels)

    It actually flies!!
    Not that I doubted it, of course, but it is somewhat awkward to see ones airplane actually take off and fly. I knew she could do it - but seeing her perform it was stunning!!
    Second flight I went along on the PIC-seat for some T&G's. and after I learned not to overcorrect on the ground (flying the thing isn't difficult, but engine-on ground handling: I have to read that page again..) I was solo.
    It flies stunning! We have to adjust prop settings some more, and there are some other small areas to look after (wheel pants, coverplates for the elevator-area) but she actually flies.
    I gave birth after more than three years of pregnancy...
    You don't see it, however (I'm the red-shirted guy)

    Hans,
    Great news. You did it the same way I did it the first time. Hired then checked out then flew off the remaining hours. The airplane looks great. Enjoy the rest of the flying.
