RV8 N188R's maiden flight was this morning!
It flies like an RV so of course I'm grinning.
Wow, did I really make that thing?
Thanks to everyone on the lists for their help but special thanks to Frank Wooten for helping along the way and he topped if off today by being the chase plane and helping me verify my inflight numbers. The plane is still no where near 'done' but at least for now when the weather is good I can actually fly it instead of being stuck just working on it and while others have all the fun!
OK, Chuck & Dave Rowbotham, I've been waiting for years for this day so you know what to do!

Congratulations Lucky;
I am behind you, but not too far. Six months, may be a year. I am happy to
hear it all went as it was supposed to.
