A new RV-9a joins the YCAB flock

[rodgerc]

I’m happy (and relieved) to report I completed a successful first flight of brand new Vans RV-9a VH-ORZ at YCAB this morning at ~08:00h.
 

All T’s and P’s in the green.

Curious why has it taken five months from CofA issue to first flight????

[rodgerc]

The owner hasn’t flown for more than a decade and isn’t listed on the CoA…The two nominated test pilots on the CoA have had other priorities. 😊
