A very busy day in the Easter sunshine at Wellesbourne today. After a lot of searching, we found the Houchin GPU problem which caused us to cancel the planned EGR.
The gremlin was an open circuit in the rheostat which provides the voltage for the initial alternator excitation. A temporary fix got it working again, and we will investigate the possibility of getting a new one manufactured. We were also able to work on the AAPP TRU, the hydraulic rig and the SABT (Bomb Trolley), and we also carried out a test run on the Palouste and two full systems demonstrations in the afternoon.
