Well after a very long time I finally got to maiden my Taylorcraft. It flies beautifully. Very gentle and predictable. A fellow club member did the maiden flight. The video with the smoke on was my first flight. What an awesome airplane!!!!
 
Thanks camss69. Nothing like the thrill of that first flight of something that you built from scratch. We are very lucky to have such a great flying field. 850 foot runway.
 
Now that I have a number of flights on the T-craft, I decided to begin adding a few more scale details to more closely replicate the full scale. Cowl painting tomorrow evening weather permitting.
