Getting A Little Closer

We have been putting in extra hours and we are getting closer to firing up some of the engines. A few groups are working on the wiring for the controllers so it won't be long now. Here are some pics.

Engine Class

With all the snow days we have been running a little behind in the lab so the last 2 days before spring break we had both groups in the lab for 4 hours. With a couple long and busy days the lab is getting back on schedule. By the end of the month we should have some of them running.
