First engine run

Had my first engine run and taxi to the compass rose to calibrate the Dynon magnetometer. It was just like there was a huge magnet pulling it toward the runway...

It took a while to figure out how to post it on YouTube but here it is if you're interested...

I'm hoping to get the final inspection this week, then wait for Transport Canada to do their thing. Hope I can fly it before the snow comes.

Great

Good work. I started my 8 for the first time last Saturday, so I know what it feels like.

Cheers

Jim
