A high speed nose lift; a high speed crow hop; and finally off and away around the pattern; the 20B powered Velocity, N755V maid its maiden flight yesterday, 8/04/06.  What an exciting milestone – even though in this case I was watching from the ground as the test pilot did his thing. 
 
Great news Al.  Congratulations!  Sorry to hear of the oil temps, but as you say, it's not entirely unexpected, and hopefully, you can sort it out pretty quickly.  It's also good to hear that the plane flies well.  On this list, we tend to focus on the engine, not the plane, but building a Velocity is no small accomplishment, so congrats again.
