Pieters,
How many of you are picking up on FAA's new line, " not sure whether the
Sport Pilot will be able to fly WITHOUT a medical" This has appeared in
several news releases since they declined AOPA's and EAA's latest proposals
on drivers lic for rec pilots. It would appear that the writing is plain as
the big nose on your face. With the histeria from 9/11 FAA would be very
reluctant to release ANY authority. An example, can any recall any government
body (beauros) ever reducing a tax. I would imagine the same fate for the
driver's lic physical exclusion.
May I suggest that EAA and AOPA approach this from the back door. Instead of
relaxing physical requirements for flying OUR Piets, which those quacks in
Oak City will never agree to, lets push to have OUR Piets reclassified as an
Ultralight. This could solve a big problem.
Thanks for bearing with my dreams.

Corky;
The reason the FAA doesn't want Sport Pilots (when/if they exist) to fly
without a medical is because they are very dangerous. They threaten the
national security unless they have a valid medical.
Doesn't matter that they can drive their car, truck, motorcycle, bus, van,
motorhome, yacht, or anything else without a similar medical as long as they
can sign a check and put the transmission selector in "D"...
I think you're unpatriotic making these derogatory statements about our
Federal government. They are only looking out for us ;o)

| Subject: | GN-1 steel tube fuselage plan |
--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "allen smith" <allenfarleysmith@hotmail.com>
Dear fellow Pietenpol friends,
I need a little help. I am building an Aircamper. Part of the reason I chose
to build this aircraft was because of the ability to post questions to a
friendly bunch of folks. I am following the original plans as closely as
possible however, I am building a steel tube fuselage.To do this,I have
been working from an incomplete, crumpled 3rd generation copy of a GN1 steel
tube fuselage plan. I began my layout work for my fuselage from this simply
because I considered it to be a more detailed description of a steel tube
Aircamper fuselage than the line drawings of the steel tube drawing on my
original supplemental drawings that I got from Ron Pitenpol. Does anyone
know where I can get a full set of GN1 Plans so that I can study this
interpretation of our Aircamper?
Thanks,
Allen Smith

Corky and all,
The main reasons I decided on building a Piet are these:
(1) Plans built (no large upfront expense for a kit).
(2) Simple wood and fabric construction (within my capabilities).
(3) In Australia it CAN BE REGISTERED AS AN ULTRALIGHT and be built under
the "Amateur Built Ultralight" regulations, which briefly is an aircraft
with a max. of 2 seats, 1 engine and MTOW of 544 kilograms.
An AUF Pilots Certificate is required to fly the Piet, but no medical, (just
drivers license standard).
The Australian Ultralight Federation fought long and hard for these and
other freedoms, but it is an ongoing battle to retain them.
Good luck with your bureaucrats, hope to see you all at Brodhead.
