It's the end of a very, very long road (4269.2 kitlog hours) , and the beginning of a new chapter in my BH build. My AWC was awarded on Wednesday, but afterward I still had to put everything back together and fit some bits and pieces here and there before the first flight could take place. The owner of the hangar that I was working out of was very, very generous (part 135 operator) and I am very grateful for his support. Today marked the end of week two in his hangar. I didn't want to overstay my welcome, so today was the day to take N907PM out into the wild and join the rest of the general aviation population on the ramp at the Soldotna Airport. I won't do my test flight until I get some TW refresher training. Patience is a virtue in this case!
Anyway, I first want to thank my cheerleaders in this project, of which there are many. The main cheerleader is my wife. Without her backing me up there would be no airplane, even though she isn't really interested in aviation. I don't want to list the people that come to mind right away and take the risk omitting someone. But I will mention one in particular who pretty much everyone knows and deserves credit for keeping Bearhawk Aircraft alive over the years and that is Mark Goldberg. Mark has been in my corner since day one and his incredible generosity, support and friendship over the years has meant lot to me and my family. Thanks Mark...for everything!
So, as to not to get too mushy...stay with it. Do something every day, even if it's just sweeping the shop floor or dusting off boxes of parts that have been sitting on a shelf. Eventually all the little projects will come together and the whole will be greater than the sum of the parts.
