Maluti Startup

Postby skydancer » Sat May 17, 2008 7:02 pm

I went to help out at the SAA museum society for an ordinary work day,and I was surprised by what was prepared.Today I got my first oppertunity as well as for some guess who happend to be there for the occasion.Some of the guys decided to start up the four engines of the B747-SP Maluti.We had some trouble starting up the GPU,which was also standing for months,and with some help from the fire services from Rand,we jump started it and work.So we finally got to start up the APU and then commenced engines startup shortly afterwards.Here is some pictures after today's event.Look at the grass in the background on the last picture. vhpy
