Mark PLEASE STOP! I am pulling 10-12 hour days assembling other peoples Whisper motor gliders while my nearly structually complete KR hybrid stands in the corner just begging for some attension. I know your aim is to motivate others like myself to make sawdust but this borders on torture!

> NetHeads, That flight was such a blast. Super calm air, absolutely nobody else flying or on the radio (am I the only guy with a firepole leading into my cockpit?), and I never backed off on the throttle after takeoff or got over 2000l. 50 minutes of shear bliss. I couldn't resist a flyby of M38 at 210 mph, because they always say it sounds so sweet on takeoff. What about at 210 mph? My guess is just short of a sonic boom, at least for what passes for a sonic boom in Hazel Green, Alabama! Did a few laps of the local drag strip, racing the cars and giving the spectators something to think about, then buzzed Jim Hill's new house construction to see if the electrician had installed electrical boxes yet. I had to climb just to get to pattern altitude! That flight had me hollering all the way down, and I'm still stoked to the max.
