    Talking 1st Engine Start of our KF SS7 Rotax 914

    FINALLY! With my father-in-law (KitfoxRick) in the cockpit standing on the brakes, and our Rotax mechanic on the other side of the plane, we finally got the 914 to catch and run. Amazing how life and work can get in the way of having fun in the sky. A bit more to do before DAR inspection, but what a relief to finally see N104Y roar to life.
