Re: short flight report
Great report Jay, very pretty scenery and very festive.
Hope you have a great Christmas and thanks for the help along the
way.

Got out on Saturday for a short flight around our valley. It was -8 C when I took off, so the density altitude was well below field MSL. Climbed out spritely and the thick air felt great. Also, have my radiator doors fully closed, so the plane is as fast as it goes. We had a little snow that made for nice scenery over the red rock in the canyons, and the ice is starting to form up on the river and ponds. Winter flying is in full swing now. Those of you building, keep at it. I have surpassed the 4 year mark since my first flight and it has been a great experience. Here is a short video.
