Pete, Ha ha finaly.. 2 month ago we had our first flight. After a lot of discusion (I have 290 hours and a lot of arobatic experiance) I decited not to do the first flight. I found a retired captain with one million hours and a lot of planes types. In my situation at the day off the first flight... the test pilot told me to be relaxed. So I mean there is a lot of emotion that wil be in your head. The second flight I jumped in and took the controlls. After 3 hours ands 15 touch and go`s I did my first solo. The last two months I changed my oil cooler an when that was finshed the wind was not calm and cross. Last monday the wind was oke, I want to go for a flight but did not feel relaxed. So I did a call to my test pilot to go with me again next week...just as a safety pilot. Wat I want to tell you that the emotion are realy there at the first flight. But more importand is to be safe, Only you can answer that quistion. I am very happy with my decision.
