N400NC taxiing back to the hangar after completing its "Maiden Flight," November 16, 1991. Note the aircraft is still in NewCal Aviation titles. Sadly, though, on August 27, 1992, the aircraft crashed at the Gimli Airport while on a test flight because an elevator gust lock re-engaged due to a design flaw.
