I wish Max the best for his upcoming flight; hope he has access to some ATF or equivalent to re-lube the housings and spends a few hours of circuits/orbiting Narsarsuaq before he heads out over the ocean again.

Max is in Greenland with his aircraft.  The engine was stuck (would not rotate)  having sat for that long, but he  worked the prop until he broke the seals loose and was able to get the engine to rotate.  Today he plans on starting the engine and assessing its suitability for continued flight on his ocean spanning trip.
