Mac, where in Oregon are you located? There are quite a few old Ford aficionados scattered around the state. If you're in southern Oregon, look up a gent named Ted Roner in Medford. He used to be one of my business partners... now retired (engineer). He has had his hands on many, many of the old Fords and still has a shop full of projects. Not a real chatty guy but he knows all about those old babbitt bearings and stuff. (541) 772-4892 Also there in Medford are other car restorers who can help with engine rebuilds... I think there is an antique restoration club there. Another gent you might look up is Jack Hamilton in Central Point (just outside of Medford). Jack was pretty much born and raised in J-3's and his brother flies a souped-up Pacer out of their family strip in the mountains. Jack knows the old cars very well, knows the restorers, and also has a shop full of old car projects. He's a retired school teacher; (541) 664-1568 or jshamilton@wave.net. You should be able to get some good assistance from either of these fellows. Oh, and somewhere right on I-5 up around Cottage Grove is a guy who always has old cars (restored) for sale, on a bluff overlooking the Interstate. I understand he is quite the restorer as well, but I don't recall his name. Ted or Jack would know. Oscar Zuniga San Antonio, TX mailto: taildrags@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net

    Subject: New Weight & Balance
    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Seibert Bob-r18643 <Bob.Seibert@motorola.com> Hey Corky came through again! I flew over to his place Saturday and picked up that metal prop. He has a really pretty bird and is just as much of a gentleman as you would suspect from his emails! Great little airport too. It looks just the way you would picture a place called Bluebird Hill. I am glad to have gone over and wish I could have stayed longer. Well, I am finally "in the envelope" on W&B and waiting for the DAR to come and bless this thing! I came in at 584 pounds total (Checked it twice) with 22 lbs on the tailwheel at 180.5 inches from the leading edge datum. (Long Fuse, 1 piece wing and A-65 engine) My mains are 2.8 inches behind the datum. I wind up at 19.5 inches for the worst case CG so I guess I am "in"....even if it is at the aft limit. The motor mount is extended 3" and the wing is moved back 2" already. I guess I will see how it flies before moving/changing much more. The metal prop on the nose and some liposuction on the tailwheel assembly really did the trick. (Just replacing the RV tailwheel alone got rid of 2 pounds!) Stuck my 2 INCH numbers on last night. Put gas in it and now am waiting for the hurricane crud to blow out so I can taxi test the "Yellow Peril". We didn't even get a rainshower out of it but we sure got some wind. Bob Seibert NX23TX

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Jon Botsford" <botsford7@hot.rr.com> EAA Chapter 59 Waco, Texas will be having a "Low&Slow" Fly-In on Saturday September 20. It will be held at the McGregor Executive Airport (PWG). There will be a free Fish Fry starting at 11:30 am until the fish is gone. Aurora Aviation the FBO has agreed to give a discount on gas that day. We will be putting out a flyer with a coupon for the discount a bit later. Let us know if you want one. We hope to attract a number of the Low & Slow type aircraft so some of those who are anticipating the proposed Sport Pilots License can see what some qualifying aircraft are like. I hope that the Piet/GN-1s have a good representation. If you want to be put on a list for more information let me know and I will take care of it.

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Isablcorky@aol.com Pieters, This discussion of ises and r-rahs bring back memories of the 4th grade and MISS Greer pounding that grammar into our non receptive brains. 1932 was a tough year all the way around. Sir, you may put my name down for my 1st personal appearance at a fly in IF those beauros make the SP issue effective by then. If not, can you assure me of an insignicant landing and parking area void of officials, beauros, ramp checkers, you get the idea. No registration or name signing. It would be about a 3 hr flight assuming those SW Texas winds show up strong about 10 am daily. If you accept these conditions I will, God willing, attend your fly in Corky in Shreveport

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Carl Loar" <skycarl@megsinet.net> Mike,,,, I set the wing back 3 1/2 inches and the motor mount is out 2 inches. The mains are split V piet style. Looks like Bob Seibert is sitting on the edge with me getting close to gettin some air under the wing. With a lot of the guys reporting great progress, we could have a heck of a showing at Brodhead in 2004. On a sad note,,, The guy that's been flying Bill Poiry's piet, came in a little too slow on a NW Ohio windy day. Wind gust got him and he dropped her pretty hard. No serious human injuries but the piet got bent quite a bit. Remember boys,,, give that gas a crack more when the ole winds start to blow. Bill says he will have it back together hopefully by fall.

If I could figure out who I loaned it to last, I'd watch it 'til the tape broke! I also want to thank Gene Rambo for his graciousness in letting me and a buddy poke around his hangar a few months ago. Judging by the work on his Travel-Air, his 'Piet is sure to be top-notch! Finally, I'll be moving to Murfreesboro, TN in August, and would like to know if anyone in the area has a Piet either flying or under construction. I overheard a fella at the local EAA meeting talk about building one when I was visiting last month, but didn't check any specifics.

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Gene Rambo" <rambog@erols.com> John said it before I could. While I am well aware that the plural of "fish" is "fish," as well as the arcane, but technically proper "fishes." "Is," however, is most definitely singular, which is why I put it in quotation marks. I don't know about multiple species being "fishes." Interestingly, a few weeks ago our own Secr'y of Education (Bush appointee) pulled a Dan (Potatoe) Quail at a visit to a junior high school and could not spell the plural of "fish" even after multiple chances and a bit of coaching. He argued that he was playing dumb to see if the student could get it right . . . no, wait, he didn't want to answer before the student . . . no, wait . . . . I could have thought of a better excuse, I wouldn't have thought of "fishes" either off the top of my head.
