I completed my first flight of my Lancair
Legacy FG at Orlando-Sanford airport this morning.
(KSFB) I had
some issues with engine cooling so I limited it to only
one time around the
patch and landed. The wind was a little difficult. The
takeoff and
landing was on 9L and the wind was 170 at 12 Knots
Gusting 20! Not exactly
90 degrees, but close enough for government work. Not
the prettiest
landing I ever made but not too bad!
As you may know, the engine is a Mazda
Renesis rotary engine out of a 2004 RX-8. The prop is
an MT electric
constant speed prop. Runs very very smooth!
Looking forward to many more.
