Congrats Righty. Feels great doesn't it?

The "nerve wracking" part will get a bit easier over the next 10 or 12 trips to the field, but I'll give you one little piece of advice; be very careful the next few trips to the field. You will be extremely nervous trying to get the plane ready to fly, and then actually getting to the point of taking off.

Do NOT get careless because of those nerves! This is one of the times when doing things step by step are really important; like remembering to plug in the ailerons when you put the wing on, checking the control throws and the trims, and keeping your fingers out of the prop!

Good luck, and most of all, have fun!
