Very nice looking airplane and congratulations on the flight.

I'm surprised you flew it from the right seat with no brakes on that side? 

Also it looks like your rudder pedals are not reinforced.  Not sure about Avid Flyers, but on Kitfoxes they recommend reinforcing them due to some breakage that occurred. Here is link to the Kitfox Service letter and a thread on TeamKitfox about it.

Oh.  I see now from the first pic that someone is in the left seat. He was ducked down and I thought you were solo from the right seat.
