Just off the phone w/ Jeff Lynds.......real-time running commentary of Frank's first flight at TG:

On the centerline, nice scale/shallow TO.....all the typical jet manuevers at realistic speeds...perfect, high-AOA slow flight (looks almost risky-slow says Jeff), landing at pilot center on CL...held the NG off. Looked like the 50th flight, not the third, Jeff says, Frank appearing very comfortable/at ease. Not a bobble, smooth as can be. Winds not a real factor so far for anyone. 8-minute flight....was up same time as Schulman and the big 16.

Puts to rest, it would seem, any questions as to how the Draken translates to model-size(!)......'flies like a Cub...', certainly the right model for Frank, as he does not rip them around.

First official flights scheduled for Saturday.
