Flight # 7 took place early this morning. There's a full (4 page) write-up on my web site at the end of chapter 29. Here's a quick synopsis:

No more turbo pipe problems. Lots of uncommanded boost. 0.8 hrs added. Everything went well for the first 35 minutes, then I think I may have experienced my first case of the famous Attention Getting Lag (AGL) that Ed, Tracy and Perry often talk about.  I did another precautionary landing. After landing the power was back to normal. Go figure.

Just for once - I'd like to have the opportunity to land this thing with the option to go around if I get it wrong.
