Very fun. Great to see the Helio looks like it will make a return to service.? These guys are a pair of savvy dudes.

I¡¯ve been to Birchwood many times.? It¡¯s airplane Mecca.? Hundreds of airplanes tied down in rows.? It¡¯s easy to spend a few hours just walking the ramp(s).

We did a takeoff on the pavement, but landed on the pea gravel parallel runway.? It was my first exposure to the cost of Tundra Tires - and the means taken to protect ¡®em.? The joke is every landing on pavement costs $50.

Fantastic. Questions while watching: Who is funding this? What¡¯s the eventual cost with this one-off engine, avionics, tooling and R&D? Who are going to buy it? These guys have a gross amount of faith and wish them well.
Did they make their May 1 deadline?
