Mark,

Burt described the first flight to a Tee. The airplane rotated and immediately was solid in the air. I did not touch the trims and everything worked like it was supposed to. The first flight was mainly a "get reaquainted with an old friend flight" with a little high speed work, and a LOT of low speed down and dirty flying. The landing was uncharacteristicly smooth for me, must be the airplane. Second flight I had a slow leak in the smooth stop but still managed to get the gear down and locked. All the rest of the flights were uneventfull, the P-120 was absolutely flawless, and was a perfect match for the plane. The plane is back into the shop for some serious detail work.
