Above, Chris's wife wishes him well
for his first solo hover in his Rotorway 162F
Chris fires up the helicopter and begins
to get light on the skids.
Chris's first ever helicopter
lift off following a week of flight training at his home
in Wisconsin. This is where you find out if you received
proper training or not. If not then the helicopter can always
be rebuilt following the rollover.
Orv had to call Chris on the
radio and tell him that he had been hovering long enough
and it was time for a break.
Above Chris give's his Orv a big Thumbs
up after landing his helicopter from his first solo flight.
Above Orv and Chris congratulate
eachother on a job well done.
Chris gets a well deserved congratulations
from his wife following years of building and now flying his
own helicopter. The photo above marks another dream come true.
It is well worth the effort and expense to get it right the
first time.
