After 5 days of ground tests, the D days is there. Fox Romeo Whiskey Lima X-ray Romeo, taxing for a flight test. Daniel lets the Ryanair Boeing 737 taking-off and takes place on the La Rochelle airport&#8217;s runway. A U-turn and the aircraft is line-up. A last call to the control tower and the green light is given, X-ray Romeo clear for take-off. Quickly the wheel leaves the ground. An incredible moment where the team doesn&#8217;t realize, the Elixir is flying!<\/span><\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"279uv\" data-offset-key=\"go6n-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"go6n-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"go6n-0-0\">&nbsp;<\/span><\/div>\n<\/div>\n<div class=\"\" data-block=\"true\" data-editor=\"279uv\" data-offset-key=\"38bau-0-0\">\n<div class=\"_1mf _1mj\" data-offset-key=\"38bau-0-0\"><span data-offset-key=\"38bau-0-0\"><span data-text=\"true\">The aircraft climbs to 5,000ft and disappears in the blue sky. 45min later, it is back on the airfield. Everything went very well.
