Well done.
The most interesting data point would have been your heart rate.
Thank you for a great story.

Lots of things I should have noted but didnt. Sensory overload. I have a little list of things to fix before I go again. My ground crew reported that the airplane appeared to climb well ( I was focused on speed/attitude and didnt think to look at the VSI - which probably didnt work anyway). They also noted that they lost sight of the all metal airplane, but never failed to find it by the sound. :-) On a positive note, once away from the ground, the cockpit got much quieter. And they pointed out that it was also considerably less noisy than the former George Graham E-Racer that used to be based here.
