Flying in an RV-8
Loading...

I helped build this plane belonging to Steve VanBatavia. Along with my first flight in it, I also did my first acrobatics which were a few aileron rolls left and right. It was amazing! I was sort of timid on the controls, though, since this was an actual plane and not the simulator I usually fly.
He built it over the course of about 2 years while in A&P school, where we met.
Sadly I only had my crumby cell phone camera to try and capture the thrill. My face hurt afterwards from smiling so huge the whole time. Its a beautiful aircraft.

This reminds me of the time I accidently got into a plane instead of my bed. I woke up flying over the ocean.
We can do audio preview! WOW
