N5886Q is back in the air as of July 14, 2010!
I am currently working on strut fairings.
I started building N5886Q in March of '06 at age 12. Construction was completed by October of '07.
It was then disassembled, painted, and transported to KARR. It was certified as an airworthy E-LSA
on January 11, 2008 and flew its maiden flight four days later, on January 15th. It was kept in Phase I
flight testing for my first U.S. solo which I conducted in it on August 24th of 2009 at age 16.
Construction of N5887Q began in February of '08 when the final characters on the data plate were
punched out by a mentor who was nominated for & eventually named the 2009 National Space Grant
Distinguished Service Award winner. N5887Q's registration status was changed from pending to
valid on April 30, 2008. A maiden flight from the West Texas Spaceport is planned for 2018.
