Lady's and Gentlemen 
I had my first flight today. A bit unexpected but was planned flight. Flight lasted about 30 minutes 
Got in some slow flight and a few gentle turns.  Thanks go out to John at velocity for the training 
I got last week . I believe it really help prepare me for this flight. Had a bit of a Oil light issue to work out
and a blinking sump light,I though I really had the sump light figured out. This project has taken  12 years 
to get to this point but did have a few years off as my kids take a lot of time. Plane flew flawlessly,
what a stable airplane the velocity is. 

My LT1 ran a bit rough in the morning but after a few changes  smoothed out nicely next step will be to figure out 
the oil pressure issue so I can start to relax a little on the seat to figure a few other things out. Cooling seemed to 
be good but I did not push the issue until the oil light / pressure is figured out.
