Thanks for our description of your first flight. It brought back memories, both apprehension and exhilaration and the great feeling being back on the ground after making the first flight in the airplane I built. Those that don't do the first flight don't know what they are missing.

Hi Guys,
Thanks a lot! Now I just have to make improvements every flight.
Hi Densil,

I'll PM you. Give me a call and we'll talk.
Wes

WAY TO GO!! Sounds like it went very well! I too had heavy left wing. re-rigged the rh flap to be up more. Ha, for some that first landing is always better than the next several!! It was for me and I am still learning!! fly on, my friend!
