My french internet spy tells me that
she was been registered on March 31st as N8082U.

That number was previously allocated to a DC8

Gerry flew the A tonite for the first time. I guess she's pretty fast. Couple of minor squawks and she'll be ready for another test hop. Congrats to Gerry, Mark and the crew at Tri State!!
Mike :D
