There's some truth to that. My life circumstances have changed significantly overthe last two years, to include an airplane friendly girlfriend, so progressreally picked up.There was other stuff, too, but, yeah, married was definitely a factor.Read this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... ___Subject: Pietenpol-List: Video of NX899KP

Here's a youtube link. The girl made this up. The takeoff is really the 1st takeoff,the landing was chosen from a collection of several. I asked her to notuse the real first landing (bounce).http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=bDj-LQ0cfykRead this topic online here:http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.p ... __________

Subject: Pietenpol-List: first passenger>She has made it VERY clear that SHE will get the first passenger ride>and many more rides together after that...That's a GREAT story of support from your wife Jim. When I was dating Karenduring the building process she would often times work on the plane with me, drill holes, glue stuff and had some good suggestions. She's the one who foundmy Comet racing go-kart brakes at a nearby Toro dealer who also sold go-karts.Karen was my first passenger. I met her an undisclosed airport and we didthe ride there since I did not have my 40 hours flown off yet. I knew the planehad enough hours on it where the bugs were ironed out by then. I have full support from Karen when I want to go out to the hangar, to a fly-in,or just hang around airplanes here, there , or anywhere.
