From Dick Phillips
As of 22 Mar 04, the Blayde Zero has not flown. In talking with Bob Odegaard yesterday, he tells me it is sready fo test hop now, as they have the last bits of the troublesome exhaust stack system installed. I am on call to head up to Wahpeton, when the big day finally arrives for that first test hop.
On a slightly different note, the P-51D N551W "MILLIE G"
had made several flights, but needs about 5 more hours put on it, before it goes to its new owner.
