Phase one complete!!
My Zodiac 601 XL-B has moved past phase one flight testing and handles beautifully! The visibility and flight characteristics are better than I imagined and I have just flown from the test area back to my own (rented) hangar in PGD! I expect to still have a few items that will need attention as I continue to do a pre-flight inspection like it is my first flight each time. Do not take anything for granted. I will be writing an article about the build as well as the expectations that were encountered and somer added expenses that were thrown in as part of the building process. It is a dream come true! Encouragement and mentors are real blessings for a project of this magnitude. Captain Dennis Kirk
