I am sorry about  it, there are no pictures, no video, I learned of the flight after the fact.    I was very disappointed , if I would have been notified prior to the flight, it would have been on You-Tube.  I have been told that I will be notified as more test flights have to be done because It is required to have 40 because the engine is not certified.

I do not own this plane anymore, but spent 12 years of my life on it and had to sell it due to the crash in the economy , but I am still keeping up with it.

March 23rd, N853BW made her maiden flight.  Flew for 20 minutes.  Set engine at 2400 RPM full rich, (O Time engine need to break it in).  Achieved a 215 Kt cruise, without feathering the MT 3 Blade prop.  Oil temps ran at 220,  Appeared to be burning about 10 gals an hour.

March 27th  took to the air for flights 2 & 3.  Test pilot said all trims are neutral, handles great, and is a well built aircraft.
