Elliot Seguin | Sanders Smokewinder / Argronaut Seafury Test Flight 8.7.2019 @utopiasnow | Uploaded 5 years ago | Updated 3 hours ago
This week's Smokewinder check flight.
-----
An airborne check of the two newest Smokewinders in existence. We normally ground check the generators before we ship but since we recently flew a set of Belgian generators on Argonaut the airplane was ready to go. So we took advantage of this opportunity to triple check that the generators are working great before shipping them to the customer.
-------
These are the 21st and 22nd Smokewinders delivered this year. A record year for our young team of technicians and staff. To celebrate we invited Sanders team members Katy Lewty and Geoff Highsmith to come along on the test flight. Geoff manned the camera in the chase plane (#Wasabinought). Katy sat in the back of the Seafury (Argonaut) and ran the generators. You can see Joel Swager (pilot of the Seafury) tell Katy when to turn the generators on and off on this less technical portion of the test flight.
-------
A great day at Sanders Aircraft.
