Denton Municipal Airport Tower.
First flight performed by Gary Platner, one of the finest pilots known to the builder, on 2009 02 05, 1745 hrs Denton Municipal Airport (KDTO). Mr. Platner flew the aircraft for 15 minutes overhead the airport performing a series of control tests as well as stalls gear/flaps up and gear/flaps down. The stalls broke straight ahead with no tendency to fall off to either side and the aircraft was in proper trim at all speeds tested (up to 130 kts indicated). Winds were from 150D at 5 kts gusting to 8 kts, temperature was 55F (13C), altimeter setting 29.87.
The sun set before the builder was able to fly. I expect that I shall make my own first flight this weekend.
Videos of the first flight will be posted on You Tube as soon as possible.
