N234JJ went from being an RV-4 project to an RV-4 airplane today, 18 May 2009 after 2 years and 8 months building! And what a BIG thrill! At 1300 today I had Col Dave Eby (ret.) do the DAR honors ('gig' free!) and then went thru the task of putting all the covers back on. And at 1930 tonight I took her into the air. It is hard to describe the thrill of flying my own creation! Again, what a BIG thrill! I'll provide more details later but in general it flew GREAT and it appears like it will be a mover! Thanks to all my friends who made this project possible and Doug R and this great and informative site for ALL the help provided. Looking forward to associating names with your faces as I fly my new RV-4 Fastback around this great country! And since I'm retiring in 6 weeks, I should have the time!!!!
