Onex 090 First day to fly!

[nwawingman]

After three years and three months ONEX 090, N1970T is flying!
Perfect weather conditions provided the perfect environment for my first flight.
All went better than planned. The engine ran perfectly, AeroInjector flawless, takeoff great, landing questionable.
When trimmed out, it flies hands off.
I need a few tips on the landing part. Not used to being so close to the ground and tend to flair a little high and tail wheel contacts
first at times. Just practice, practice, practice I guess.
I love it!

08/11/2015 - This is a short video I took the day of Franks first flight. I was not able to be there for his first flight early that morning, but it was great that I got to see him make a couple beautiful flights that evening. To me it looks like Frank had been flying that Onex in his dreams the last three years while he was building. I think his takeoff and landings looked great. Congratulations Frank!

Congratulations Frank on flying a beautiful looking airplane! It looks like you may be rounding into the flare just a little high which is causing you to come down tailwheel first. These airplanes sit so low to the ground that's a pretty standard adjustment to get used to. The airplane looks great!

Thanks for taking and sharing the video Rick!
