Joe Paff RV-7 #72252
Hello, I am happy to say that I had a great and very successful first flight in my rv-7 (N511PR) on 7 June 2018 at 7:45am. Everything worked as it should and all engine temps were good. Took her it up to 4000′ and did a clean stall and then one with full flaps. Both stalls were straight forward. Practiced some slow flight and flew back to the airport. Set up my approach and did three point landing! I could not ask for a better first flight. I now have 44 hrs flying her. I can not begin to say how much I love the way she flies. What a great Airplane!
I would like thank my wife for being supportive. Building an Airplane is not easy. So having her support was foremost. I would like to thank God for watching over me. I would like to thank my hangar mate Dave for all his help and all the other people that helped.
Like everyone says. Keep driving those rivets. It worth it!
