Default RE: Question on Maiden flights?

Thanks for all of your thoughts, I had the plane ready to go at the field, she was charged, fueled and I had a more experienced guy ready to take it into the air, but it was not to be, when I tried to start her up, the engine mount came loose, back to the shop for some repair work, maybe I will try again next week.

On the other hand I had a great day with my trainer, did some extended inverted flying for the first time, and snapped some sharp loops from the inverted position, I am really pushing my trainer to the limits right now, a bit worried that I will eventually fold the wings on it if I pull any more G's than I did today!
