Hello All,

Today we took C-FQQQ up for its fi= rst flight after about 9 months of upgrades and maintenance.  We replac= ed the entire panel with a Garmin G3X system and for some reason we decided t= o do it ourselves.  We didn't build the plane and had a very basic unde= rstand on how things workedSouthern

Special thanks to Bob Pastusek wh= o's offered great help countless times throughout this process.

Thanks folks!
