I hope this goes through, I haven't seen any KRnet emails in three or four days. I finally flew N236MS today and I am still high on adrenaline from the flight. All of the fears and what if's went away as soon as I powered up. Even made a perfect wheel landing. Keep building guys, dreams do come

I concur with that. I did 10 or 12 on my Sonerai 2. When I came in over the fence with oil on the windshield the landing configuration was familiar and the resulting landing though blind in front was a good one. Get very familiar with the ground cues.
