A captures pulsejet on a stand. Notice that is operating by being fed
air, fuel, and notice the spark plug lead.
Again, notice how the pulsejet CANNOT operate INDEPENDENTLY without
flying at at least 186 mph.

It's a test stand. Maybe they were testing the engine over a range of simulated
air speeds. Who knows. It is still not an operational V-1 engine or launch.

You have been shown video of the engines running without forced air. That
should be proof enough. Look at the videos of the V-1 launches. The engines
were running before the piston was fired.There was no air being forced in. Are
you suggesting the Nazis were going to launch a V-1 and HOPE the engine kicks
in before the end of the ramp? Are you suggesting there's a hidden forced air
source that just happenes to vanish about the time the missle leaves the ramp?

There was a prototype engine that had a row of glassed over observation ports
down one side. See if you can find the footage of it. I have seen it on
television a few times and do not recall it being hooked up to a forced air
system.
