First engine run!!


After two years of building Clarke Deacon had his Murphy Rebel project come to life this afternoon.  Clarke had spent the week working out some electrical glitches and considered the engine ready to run.  However, when putting some fuel in the wing tank, it was determined that the fuel line routing from the wing to the firewall would be a problem.  The line was removed and new line was used to reroute the fuel.  The problem was solved and ready for engine run.  Included is a photo and video (when I figure out how to upload it) of the birth of another Murphy Rebel.  Get it finished Clarke so we can see it fly.
