First flight today.  Climbed to 6500' over the airport and began a conservative  program.  Did mild maneuvering, approaches to stalls, simulated approaches at altitude, flaps at 50% and 100%.  .6 hour.  Limited airspeed to 110 Kt.  OAT 50F.  Water temp 190 in climb, 180 with power back.  Oil temp 170.  Needs more left rudder on take-off and climb than expected, otherwise flys nice!  More data as acquired.
 
I'm indebted to the list for all the shared information that made this project possible.  Thanks Tracy for making your products available.
