You need Facebook to see the fire-up video. One hopes that the engineering is better than the camera work. To give the builder his due: "The build was on my bucket list to complete before I am 90. I have restored/rebuilt as an amateur almost 100 vehicles since the mid 1950s, including 5 tanks (English, German, French and Russian). This was the first attempt at starting the pulse-jet, about half an hour before the film of the engine running. I was being too cautious with the gas flow and it did not auto-start."
