Mike flew her for a good amount of time. I was there for all three landings and 2 of the take off's, simply amazing to watch and the sound is only some of the best music. sorry for no pictures. all i had was my iphone and the pictures didn't show very well with it being over cast for the first 2 take offs.

Nice to hear. I hope to see it fly one day.

PS I notice the article refers to "Jerry Hagen."

Yes...in the excitement of the event we misspelled his last name...twice!
