I have posted an edited video of N9648B first flight on my face book page "Michael McGrew'. No surprises. A minor glitch with the radio an altimeter. I think you can see at the tail end of the takeoff what a great rate of climb it has with the 360.
Yes 9 1/2 years was worth it

2nd flight today.
Stall 53 mph
Approach 70mph tends to float some. May try 60 -65 on approach
Calm air max speed at 130 mph (indicated)
Stalled clean with no adverse behavior. Flies hands off. No adverse yaw
Tremendous climb response
Scott 3200 tail wheel will not break loose. I think the rudder stop is preventing movement to the point where the cam's release the lugs. Does anyone have some experience with this?
Made a low level high speed pass over the runway. Spectators said it sounded like Daytona (0360 with straight stacks)
