One thing struck me as odd, they retracted the gear on its first
flight. I've never seen that done on bizjet test programs.



One wet test-flight crew...!!!

What was the little cone shaped thing off the tail during the flight?

I didn't see the picture you saw, but it is not unusual to have a spin recovery
chute installed during flight testing.
