My FIRST START was a LONG time ago but I remember how SURPRIZED 😮 I was that it actually started!!! That quickly turned to a broad grin and then suddenly realizing I needed to scan some GAUGES, why don't you! :ROFLMAO: Congratulations!!! Soon to have air under those NEW WINGS!!!

Hi Marlon, I just thought I’d post a screenshot of the first start. Thank you for being a great friend to Peter. I pray that my Brother in law can find a plane to work on and fly; it would be the best thing for him. Get those wings on that beautiful 8, my friend is building a Harmon Rocket. Thanks again!
