Afghani Scratch-Built Being Flight-Tested

This story is inspiring, encouraging, frightening, and funny all at the same time.  Hopefully Mr. Shah has at least gotten hold of a copy of AC 90-89A on the subject of homebuilt flight testing, which he can find at the FAA's web site:

I envy his courage and ingenuity.  I just hope he can make it through flight testing successfully.  Suggestion: Find somebody who actually has flight experience to do the next few flights.  Good Luck!
