Sonex 0953
On Saturday, April 3, Sonex #953 took to the air for the first time. Test pilot, Mike Singleton (Sonex #465), said it flew straight and true, and that my AeroVee was the smoothest one he has ever flown behind. My thanks to the good folks at Sonex for a wonderful design and great tech support. I also want to thank my friends from EAA Ch. 59 for helping me finish building my airplane. I especially want to thank my family for their tolerance and support throughout this 3 year project. A video of my first flight is posted online here: http://tinyurl.com/y7rcrmf
