Hope he has as good weather the whole trip! That is such a sweet looking Legacy, but I'll be pulling for 33 this year!

How's his progress?

The trip went great. With all the commotion the last couple days I am slacking, but I hope to have some photos of his trip to upload soon.

So pumped for Justin. He did the high altitude envelope expansion on the green dragon (test report here) a couple years back, and did a fantastic job. Since then he did the entire phase one program on the Suspended Tiger, became a full member of the society of experimental test pilots (merit based), and did half the prop testing for the Catto race propeller program we did last year on Rick Poe's Cassutt...but he hasn't sat behind a blown 550 in a while. When Lynn asked Justin to bring 44 back to Mojave it meant Justin's first time flying the world record holder and his first time operating a race prepped Chia motor. And holy smokes did Justin do a great job. So freaking pumped to have him as a test pilot for Wasabi and I can't wait to see what he does next. Totally awesome!!

I apologize for rambling, Go Justin GO!!
