Myron Callaham, from Bowling Green, KY sent a note and a photo of his successful maiden flight in his Panther LS. Congratulations to Myron!
Myron’s Panther LS is SN098 and is powered by a Lycoming O-235 and a Sensenich 2 blade fixed-pitch wooden propeller. Myron purchased his Panther tail kit in late 2017. Then he opted to upgrade his tail kit to the full kit, along with factory-built fuel tanks, main wing spars, and a pre-bonded canopy. His kit was delivered in May of 2018 and he is now flying his Panther!
Myron says “The Panther is everything I hoped for and more. A great airplane. Thanks to the SPA team and builder community for all the help.”

Congratulations! I am south of you in Franklin, TN and have been looking at these on youtube for a couple of years. I was hoping for another two place after selling my Van’s 6A. Big mistake, btw.
Maybe I can pop by and check put your new magic carpet.
