I don't even remember it! :oops: :oops:
Mercs are like women, no 2 are exactly alike. That's what testing is about. In general it is safer to test motors and props than women!

Was to the tune of 'that old trick'....Now make sure all tools, cans and manuals are out the way when I take pics. :D
Fasten bra straps and remove dentures...

Well it coughed a little more than it has done previously so rekon it must be getting the knack of it rather than mechanical fault. Compression was spot on. :D

Didnt use easy start at all for the fear of buggering it all up completely.

To be honest I didnt get that much of an opportunity to have a proper go due to the list of 'things to do' left for me by Charl. So will have to set some more time to one side.
Life isn't a rehearsal!!!
