Brief Description:  Engine #5a - Engine Install

Joe and I dove into the process of making the engine cooperate with the engine mount which took a while - so there weren't any pictures of that. We struggled at times, but Joe's experience paid off and eventually we wrestled the bolts and doughnuts into the correct position and got everything torqued. A big thank you to Joe for his time, the use of his hoist, and his expertise to get this milestone accomplished! After the task was completed, we chatted for a bit and then I helped Joe get the hoist back in his truck and then we moved the prop back into the garage.

After Joe left, I started the cleanup process and I couldnt' stop looking at that pretty engine hanging off the front of that airplane!
