Father's day was the first flight and my son and wife helped out along with my friend and flight instructor Dave Werner. Everything worked great and this was a fantastic accomplishment after 1300 hrs and 2 1/2 years. I have an MGL Radio, SkyView EFIS, and I added extended range tanks. The Sonex transition training was great and the support during the build was fantastic. I can't say enough about how fun this aircraft is to fly! Thanks to my family for supporting me, especially my lovely wife Jill, now known as the 'Riveting Girl'. |

On Wednesday the 22nd of May, Sonex #618 “Flyin’ Matilda” left the ground and embraced the sky. She is powered by a Jabiru 3300 and sports a tailwheel. She flew wonderfully and even apparently landed herself while I was still wondering what had happened. Team Pearce-Ros (Me, Rosemary, Michael and Matthew) wants to thank the academy, our technical counselor Randy Smith, our hangar mate Mark Cassada whose name I probably just spelled wrong, the manager and overlord of the Oxford Henderson airport, Mike Kellogg (who just told me on the phone that he had sold my aircraft for scrap) and of course the entire Sonex extended family of John (“Do I look like a people person?”), Betty (“Thank heavens I am a people person!”), Jeremy (“I am strong, like bull!”) and Kate (“Of course John is a people person!”) in addition to illustrious Kerry (“Catch the pen Andrew, only Australians get motion sick. You owe me taxes. Muhahaha!”), Mark (“What? Kerry is levying taxes for support calls?”) and Heather (“What do you mean I am funny?”) and everyone else up there that eats lunch at the Hornet’s Nest. I hear some guy called Pete Buck was involved as well. Based on the way Matilda flies, he might one day amount to something. Who knows!
Thanks for Tony Spicer for giving us a flight in Sonex 32, all those years ago. It is your fault Rosemary’s laundry sink is full of paint.
*I think I am making a Goodfellas reference. Joe Pesci was a comparative wuss. Seriously, don’t cross her. |

hello Sonex Team.
I send you this mail from French soil to tell you that I made my first flight with my Waiex March 31, 2013. I have done a thousand hours of construction and adjustment with my parents, for less than a year of construction (April 2012 - March 2013). My first few minutes of flight I given an indescribable pleasure. Thank you for allowing me to realize my dream of having an good aircraft at the age of 27 years.
