If it happens today, speedonthewater.com will report.

Also, someone an in earlier post asked for an engine shot. Here's one, courtesy of Gary Stray.

those are Jims engines 13B,s.
Looks like Stray really does a nice job with the rigging.

Thanks for the pic.....this is probably the gear box configuration to get the gas turbine aimed with the exhaust facing rearward. SCS units.
