Fantastic to see it fly. One of the worst videos I've ever seen. It's like at a NASCAR race when the flyover happens and the cameras are looking at the crowd. WTF! Show the plane!

What a great moment. Can't wait until I get to see and hear Doc and Fifi together. Sure that will happen sooner than later.

^^^Ya, saw that one. Sure hope they bring it to Reno at some point. Do a lap! Do a lap!

When will Doc take to the air again? I'm sure they have a fair amount of flight testing to do.

Sounds like it will shortly after Airventure (Oshkosh) concludes, as the crew that did the first flight is helping with FiFi there/here.
