First Flight

[sr2500]

On Wednesday, January 24th, at high noon, N25SR took to the skies for approximately 45 minutes. The flight was relatively uneventful with only a few minor discrepancies. I was able to upload the video of my first flight to you tube yesterday. There are three, engine start, takeoff, and landing. The takeoff was sketchy as I allowed the airplane to wander to the left. Perhaps it was my focus on the photographer taking the video off to the side? Pretty decent first landing. This is going to be a great hunting/fishing vehicle after our upcoming Colorado move. I also attached a photo in case you want to update your screen saver

Enjoy.

Congrats, well done on a big build. You chose a superior kit from a Canadian company with a great rep. Now, all you need to do is put amphibs or straight floats on it and you've got yourself a poor man's Beaver.
