Well done Bruce! just be careful until you have a hundred hours under your 
belt. Then keep non being careful for the rest of your flying time!
I have heard that the new motorglider wings also flew on 2 April. And the 
Liberty, the certified version of the Europa. Sounds like April 2 was a 
special day for the group.
