It is now a reality. C-GFAB is offially an airplane.
Until it flies, it is just a "project", or an expensive lawn ornament.
The flight was great. Uneventful, which is the way a pilot likes it.
I left the gear down for the fist flight.
It makes it easier to control the speed so it doesn't go too fast.
Here are some pics.
The first liftoff.
The first climb to circuit altitude.
Set up for landing. On short final.
and...
Touch down!
Here is the big kid, with the thoroughbred.
A big day for the Hildebrand family.
Everyone has worked hard and sacrificed a lot for this one.
Looking good buddy, love to b your co-pilot one day..
ReplyDeleteThanks for your kind comments. I be more than happy to have you aboard. Hopefully, it will be as exciting as riding shotgun with you in the SUV in Erbil.
