The first photo by George Cooper shows Don Fitch
turning over the keys to Ralph Amelung who said he was "happy raiding Don's
garage again"! The second photo by Ralph shows how realistic this
plane looks. The rest of the photos taken by Carolyn Schlueter show
Ralph and his idling airplane. The take off roll begins...followed by
a "knee knocking" take-off and trailing ground support team (Steve
Ramonczuk and George Cooper). The ground
support team served also as the backup flight test team. And of course
all ends well with a perfect landing!
