Wright Brothers and I are amazed of your craftsmanship totally blown away. Have a merry Christmas Bruce

Great video Dennis! Appreciate you taking us along. I started my flight instruction in the late 70’s and life got in the way at about 35 hours so I never finished. Here I am at 67 and crossed my 11th hour of instruction today (getting my PPL has been on my bucket list all these years). I’ve loved tagging along with you on your build thinking that may be a possibility in my future😀. Congrats on getting to your testing stage. Cheers!

Your plane is superb Dennis. Your practice circuits, and planned movement to the practice area, reminds me of my EROS. Then 13 years later I saw over 750hrs in my flight log. You will do the same - and more. :-) I hope you fly to some of the Saturday breakfasts that will be in your area. Great fun - great people - great new airplanes to see. And your airplane will be one of the stars - no question about that. Thanks for taking us along., N-6395T

Amazing Dennis! You must be really proud of your airplane. Thanks for bringing us on this journey!

Really nice build! 😱😁👍👍🇺🇸

I was laughing so hard imagining a airliner landing and getting off the taxi way behind this guy lol

Congratulations on your magnificent aircraft build. It's a real gem and your videos are enjoyable. If you ever take it to Oshkosh or Sun n Fun I'm sure you'll bring home an award. Happy flying and Merry Christmas.

What an accomplishment! It must feel wonderful flying a plane you built. The camera captures a little of how it must feel. Thanks for sharing! Peace and love..Suz What ☮️💛

Great to see you flying your plane that you built, I'm planning on getting back to mine soon to experience flying a plane I built too. Good stuff, happy flying.

That was a very nice flight. I really like the Gennipod mount and operation. It'll be great fun to watch your practice area maneuvers! Thanks for continuing the videos.

Watched you since the beginning, you brought tears to my eyes seeing your airport come to life. Jealous with Love.

Bloody awesome stuff mate, enjoying your video's for sure not enduring them ha ha!

Very Nice!!

The level of detail you go into and your calm, low-key approach are what make your videos worth watching. The construction videos were a great help to me. Though somehow I missed seeing you build the wing spars. Did you start the series after the spars were already built?

Great video and great news on the Gennipod. Nice installation, mine isn't as elegant but glad to hear the solution works. I hope to have mine installed in a couple of weeks. Thanks for sharing your journey!!

Thanks for posting. Very interesting. I am building a Piet. Planning on a BMW r1200 GS engine. It needs 12 V to run. Insightful.

Great to hear the Gennipod is working for you. I would hold off on the prop until you have about 20hrs on the engine.

I'm thrilled for you, Dennis. Life is short. Enjoy... I'd be interested in some numbers. Empty weight, straight and level cruise speed, fuel burn and range, engine off glide ratio, landing speed, etc. And did you do the flaperon option? My UL had that, so the plane would meet FAR 103, but was told never to use the flaps. I never did, but I did add a couple of flaps reflex notches, which made it easier to trim for level flight, and added a tiny bit of speed.

👍👍👍
