After trading a partially built kit for his Globe Swift, my Dad, Robert Gee, got his airworthiness certificate last Monday from Mel after working on it off and on for at least 5 years. I moved to California a couple of years ago for work, so I hopped in my RV-7 and flew from Bay Area to Tyler TX in 2-4 hour legs. My brother came up from Houston and we flew chase as my Dad piloted the RV for the first time. Flew perfect. Had to work some baffling due to some warm cylinders and some panel bugs still to work out. He definitely had the RV grin....we all did.
