First Test Flight

Saturday, 7th August, I performed the 1st testflight from LOWW to LOWG in my Simulator. All systems where working as expected. During the approach we had to cross some heavy thunderstorms and rain. The photo shows the ND during approach.

All systems are working well. Only the LCD display lost 2 connections, but this can be resolved during the next days.
In the following weeks we will continue to work on the overhead construction.

Here a nice shot from some wires on the back of the overhead.
