I was already past it when I decided to
land and then didn’t want to take a chance of getting back around to it
due to cooling issues.

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.
