  everything else in the green the first flight of KitA205/N205CN took =


  Lindsay at my home field Lenhardt's (7S9) near Portland Oregon.  The =

  flight lasted .8hr and established power off stall speeds.  Clean at =

  53KIAS and flaps/gear down at 42KIAS.  All temps stayed in the green.  =

  Fuel pressure was somewhat high (I'm open for ideas or suggestions on =

  why).  Bob says the 914 is particularly smooth.  More flights are set =

  for tomorrow and I'll post more numbers .
