First Engine Run of our Job-15 after 4 Years.

[6./ZG26_Klaus_Mann]

One of Two in Existence with a 180hp O-360A-2 for Aerotows. Better than a Dr.400. 1960s Sportsplane with Laminar Flow Wing. Just a very cool Plane and great to have Running again.
Ours also has a 109 Style Spinner.

Can we have a cockpit video of that flight please. And make it a cockpit video. I was firering up a video from a flight in a B 24 , and the bugger filmed the view from all possitions and very little of the actual possitions . I like to see the procedure from start to takeoff and landing if possible

Of course. We only have Onboard Footage from unsuccessfull Attempts  Yesterday. Today we finally had a good Battery and some Emergency Cables but we were busy enough getting her to run to Record proper Video. 

 

I basically was the Man with the Fire Extinguisher and there just in Case Brakes, Engine Control and Chocks fail to Steer the Aircraft away from the Expensive Stuff into the Forest and thus had a couple of Seconds to Record Stuff.
