First Engine Start!

Today I hit a big milestone! Successful first engine start! A few hiccups with my engine start checklist, namely missing turning the ignitions on, but once I did that the engine started right up! I did discover an oil leak and a small fuel leak, but both were quickly remedied. All in all, very happy! Still lots of little things to do before final inspection.
