Reinath" Subject: First Flight Content-Type: text/plain; charset="us-ascii" ; format="flowed" X-Mailing-List: lancair.list@olsusa.com Reply-To: lancair.list@olsusa.com <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> << Lancair Builders' Mail List >> <<<<<<<<<<<<<<<<--->>>>>>>>>>>>>>>> >> After 5 years of building and three prior attempts at a first flight, my 360 standard-build MKII finally flew for the first time Friday morning at about 10:30 with Dave Morss at the controls. Everything went well, and I plan to write a more detailed report soon. The one problem that Dave encountered on the flight that may be a little difficult to solve is a rolling moment to the left, but only with the gear down. With the gear up, the plane flew straight and stalled straight. The gear doors must be causing this (I have the standard gear). Anyone else had this problem?
