HI Chuck,
I used streamlined tubing, 1.349" x 0.571", which is equivalent to 1" round
tubing in tension and 5/8" tubing in compression. I haven't run an
analysis, but I would be very confident substituting the 5/8" round tubing
(particularly with a heavy wall like .066") for the streamlined tubing.
I'll try to run some numbers tonight. How long are your cabane struts? Are
they the standard "plans" length, or did you make them longer (as I did).
Jack

Hey Piet Pals,
What size are the slanted struts that go from the leading edge of the upper
fwd cabane struts, to the top motor mount fittings ? I have some 5/8" X
.066 wall, and I think this will suffice, but I just wanted another
oppinion.

I haven't built them yet, but with the wing in the present location, they
will be 28 9/16" to 28 11/16" center to center. I also have some 3/4 X
.058, and some 7/8 X .035 in reserve for the Tailwind I'm building. I have
an abundance of the 5/8 X .066, and was hoping it would be adequate.

Dan,
Good luck & Godspeed: I hope you'll be home safe with your loved ones
sooner rather than later.
During the last mess in Iraq my best friend was on the Eisenhower & other
friends were on the Iwo Jima; I'll be thinking about you.
As Bert says, you guys need anything, get in touch with the list, we'll do
what we can.
Regards,

| Subject: | OH Corvair College? |
--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Kip & Beth Gardner <kipandbeth@earthlink.net>
List,
I just got back from talking to Forrest Barber, at Barber Airport in
Alliance, OH.
We would like to try to get William Wynne to come up and do a Corvair
College during one of the vintage aircraft Fly-Ins that are going to happen
at Barber this summer.
I'm going to see if I can enlist the help of my EAA Chapter (#82), which
just aquired a large mobile home that we are renovating as a meeting and
workshop space at Barber. The Chapter usually holds a pancake breakfast at
the Fly-Ins there.
What I'm trying to do now is find out how many of 'youse guys' might be
interested in attending so that we can have some idea whether or not this
would be worth William's time. I have not yet contacted William, I want
some idea of interest first.
Alliance is ~2hrs. (driving time) west of Pittsburgh, ~5hrs. east of
Michigan and Indiana, ~4 hrs. north of Charleston W.VA, ~5hrs. from
Buffalo, NY and about 6 hrs. from Washington, DC. This makes it an ideal
location for all you guys living in the Lower Midwest and Mid-Atlantic.
Plus, you'd be attending a real nice 'down home' fly-in.
Potential dates would be:
June 6,7,8 - Funk Fly-In
July 4,5,6 - Taylorcraft Fly-In
August 8,9,10 - Aeronca Fly-In
The Funk Fly-In is a new event a Barber, the other two are established
events and well attended. A lot of OH Piet guys tend to show up at the
Taylorcraft event, and Mike Cuy usually flys in if the weather is good
(just a little arm twisting there, Mike).
Anyway, please let me know if any of you would be interested in coming to a
Corvair College. Also, if one of you on the CorvairCraft list could forward
this to them, I'd appreciate it. Post replies to me or the list.
Thanks very much!

William is usually up at oshkosh and surrounding areas
at the end of july for airventure. and we are in the
planning stages of a cv college for that time. is that
close enough for the ohio people to attend that one?

Chuck,
I might suggest that you weld an adjustable clevis such as used on a wing
strut to these pieces at one end so that they are adjustable if you wish to
change the wing position for center of gravity purposes.
Hope this helps,
John

Del,
Not really. It is about a 10-12 hr. trip from this area to that part of WI
and anyone coming from further south or east (WV-MD-NY-PA) would have to
travel even longer.
If William is willing, maybe we could work schedules out such that he does
a Midwest/Mid-Atlantic 'tour' (would he need 'roadies'?). I believe
Airventure ends right before the Aeronca Fly-in at Barber, which is Aug.
8,9,10.
Maybe Wm. could do the WI College in conjunction with the Brodhead Piet
Fly-In & then come do the OH one after AirVenture?
Let me know what you think.
