 Pete Zaccagnino just completed the first flight on my ES. He wanted a runway
 of at least 4000 feet just in case he had to abort the first take-off. I now
 have about 16 hours on the plane and believe you need a longer runway for
 those first landings because in a new plane it is hard to bring the plane
 down in the first 400 to 500 feet!
 
 If you have any questions, I'll try to answer them.
