Our test pilot is up and about after his knee surgery, and suggested that we bring the ship to Dallas to test and transition ourselves into her, so we’re working with the FAA to get a ferry permit and new test flight box down there. In the meantime, I’ve ordered a GRT Sport EFIS as a backup flight instrument from Grand Rapids Avionics. This is partly because it’s a good idea for the long cross-country (we’d always planned a backup unit, just hadn’t purchased it), and partly because Dave’s Blue Mountain recently locked up on him in flight (YIKES!).
