First Flight: STOL CH 750 N750PS
After 7 years of construction, my Zenith STOL 750 took flight for the first time this weekend.
While it wasn't the prettiest of flying, the plane performed perfectly with no issues other than rpms being a little lower than I would like at WOT.
For landing I had a true crosswind which I failed to notice and hence the poor alignment with the runway at the end. I'll do better after some more time getting used to the controls.
