When I visited in November my tour guide said the motor was going to be hung temporarily to help get everything wired and fitted as well as look more complete for WWII weekend. If I remember correctly it has not been overhauled yet. Hopefully somone in the know can tell us.

Cow Flap? Sounds like a BUM Steer!
Truly a very cool project, lots of dedicated folks putting in the hours! Slowly making progress, one day, a flyer!
