Then the somewhat similar concept of the Flat Boy, also on its first flight and also on a B6-0. (It, like the Micro Fat Boy, was built over a year ago, when we thought the EFB might fly in August 2016, and when it didn't I held both back.) This was probably my most heads up flight, considering I had no idea how to do a meaningful simulation and was just hoping the design would work. It did.
