The Journey Begins

This journey is a decade in the making but only just getting started. My beloved 150 has sat wingless in storage for 8 years almost to the day, but no longer! The wings are on, a few gallons are in the tanks, and the battery is charged... lets see what happens!

It's Alive! The primer seals are dry rotted so it took a little cranking to get fuel in the cylinders but as soon as that happened, the O-200 came alive!

Oil Pressure... check, Oil Temperature... rising, Mags... check. I let it run for half an hour to see if anything unusual would appear. All seems well on the surface, now it is time to begin the process of going through each system piece by piece.
