Panther First Flight – Sam Kite from Telford, TN – SN026

Sam Kite from Telford, TN flew his Panther LS powered by the UL Power 520iS.  This is the first UL powered Panther to take to the skies and the performance is great.  His first flight was August 16th.  Here is what Sam had to say:

“First flight was today.  Very impressive.

These are some of the modifications on the Panther:

200 hp UL Power
Airmaster constant speed prop
10 “ Skyview, with autopilot 
ADS-b complaint, in and out
Custom carbon fiber cowling
Electric trim
Electric flaps
Landing lights
Vynil wrap trim
And probably a few more.

The plane flew perfect, very fast, numbers to come later, sounds awesome 
Can’t wait to build a Two place Courgar.

Gong to be smiling for a long time.
See the plane at Sun N Fun.

Thanks 
Sam Kite

My Panther build was really a lot of fun. I completed the entire project in my two car garage then moved it to the airport for the first flight. I always get comments over the radio about what a great looking plane it is. It's a real blast to fly.

I was able to build my Panther in my basement and carried the finished pieces up one at a time through my living room and kitchen into a tiny 1 car garage where it now sits with its wings folded. The folding wings will allow me to share a hangar and transport it to any field for flight testing. I can't imagine building anything else in my limited space.

Paul spent a lot of time with my friend and I on the Panther. Looks to be a great new product and I came away feeling confident they are building and supporting a very strong, safe, and well built plane.

After working with Rachael and Dan on getting my Corvair engine going for my Sonex, I have decided to build a Panther. Here's why: the support is outstanding! Phone calls are answered and texts are responded to almost immediately! After experiencing building three different aircraft from three different companies and presently converting the Sonex, I can say this from experience....these guys are first class!!
