Been following this one for a while, and they just got their new craft up and over the 'hump'.

This really bodes well for their campaign, they're taking it nice and slowly, ticking off each box one at a time.

They hit over 30 knots today still doing shakedown tests and not using their fully fledged wing. All signs are looking good for it to exceed their expectations. It's been really exciting watching the gestation of this craft. I have a real soft spot for it as the 'pilot' is an ex-pat aussie.
