Gotta love a pretty spring day

Nice video, Dan!

Beautiful airplane you have there. Is that a Jacobs?
 
7 cylinders, 3.5 full rotations, checking compression on each cyl?

Yellow rag? Reminder for something. Compression relief valve?
 
Nice. Beautiful plane. Yellow rag a reminder to check something, couldn't quite see what.
 
pulling prop thru to check for hydraulic lock in the lower cylinders. yellow rag attached to a manifold drain valve.

Yup. Hydrolock check. The drain valve is to release oil that could accumulate in a lower cylinder.
 
What a fun airplane, enjoy

Very nice Dan..

at starting, it sort of reminded me of a 96 Harley I used to ride.

as did the blowing hair :)
 
Wow! That is a really nice looking airplane, and it sounds like Heaven! I love ‘em big and round!
