Why would having a longer nose cause you have problems recovering from a
slip? My guess is that the extra nose would act counter to the rudder in a
slip and help keep it there, simple due to the fact that the side surface
area of the nose is forward of the center of lift. Somewhat like if the
aircraft was hanging by a string at the center of lift, a crosswind hitting
the tail would try to rotate the aircraft one way, the same wind hitting the
nose would try to rotate the aircraft the other. A longer nose provide a
higher ratio of surface in front of to surface behind the center of lift.
If this is the case, moving the wing back does the exact same thing, so is
there really a problem?

One of the tech counselors on this list may help out with this one, I'm sure
I don't know all the regulations as well as I think.
Gross weight rating is a function of ultimate load (in "g") and the force
required to fail the structure. For certified aircraft, the design criteria
for the utility class is a minimum rated load of 4.4g positive and something
I can't remember for negative, among other things. This rated load is a
function of ultimate load, which is simply a safety factor (ultimate load is
1.5 times rated, 2.0 times for fiberglass construction).
So the first thing you need to know is how much load will the structure
handle before failing. Let's say the at 6,000lbs of force, the weakest part
fails (motor mount, struts, fuselage, whatever). If we are trying to
certify our aircraft in the utility category we need 6.6g ultimate to rate
at 4.4g (4.4 x 1.5 = 6.6), so our gross weight becomes 6000/6.6 or 909lbs.
Since we are not trying to certify the aircraft in the normal, utility, or
aerobatic classes (or categories?), we can set the rated load and gross
weight at whatever we wish. Just understand that the two still have to work
out with the formula above. In the example, it could be 3.0g (4.5g
ultimate) at 1333lbs, or 6.0g (9g ultimate) at 667lbs. Unfortunately, I
don't think we know the ultimate load capacity on the aircraft so it makes
it a little tough to do this. My guess is that most people just pick a
gross weight and live with the fact that the actual rated load is unknown.

While picking a gross weight bear in mind that the max gross for the
Sport Pilot rule is 1232# if I'm remembering that right. If you pick a gross
weight of say 1250# and later lose your medical you could be screwed over
18#s. Or maybe someday someone might want to buy the plane to fly under the
Sport Pilot rule. I know this doesn't affect the fellow from S. Africa but
here in the U.S. it is now definetly something to consider. Cheers Ed G.

In addition to structural requirements, certificated airplanes have to meet
some performance guidelines.
FAR part 23, sub part 65 (14 CFR 23.65) says that each "normal, utility, and
acrobatic category reciprocating engine-powered airplane of 6,000 pounds or
less maximum weight" (that would include Piets if we were seeking
certification) "must have a steady climb gradient at sea level of at least
8.3 percent for landplanes or 6.7 percent for seaplanes and amphibians with
...a climb speed ... not less than 1.2 VS1 (stall speed) for single--engine
airplanes."
Stall speed depends on maximum lift coefficient, wing area, weight and air
density.
BHP's airfoil was good for about a 1.3-1.4 maximum lift coefficient on the
145 square foot wing, most Piets seem to be flown at a max gross of around
1100 Lb, and we assume sea level density (0.0765 Lbm per cubic foot).
Most of our birds will stall around 45 mph TAS. 1.2 times that is 54 mph.
8.3% of that is a little over 390 feet per minute. So, at or above 54 mph
we would have to be light enough (and powerful enough) to climb at 390 fpm
at the gross weight we used for the stall calculation. If we can't do that,
we would have to get bigger engines or reduce our maximum weight.
Since we are not seeking certification, these are just guidelines, but they
are a pretty good indicator of whether we are doing things right.

Pull up FAR 23 on the FAA website and review the paragraphs referring to
ground and flight loads, factor of safety and so forth. Flight dynamics
figure into the mix - there are accelerations due to yawing and pitching
that case loads for fixed masses such as the engine. It's not all just a
matter of static strength.

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Deon,
I built my Piet especially for high altitude operation since I live at about
7200 feet and have it based at an airport that is 7946 feet high. We have
the continental divide (14000 plus)on one side and 11,000 foot mountains on
the other side of our little valley.
I was told when I started the project, that most Piets tend toward being
tail heavy in their stock form, therefore I felt that I could use a heavier
powerplant than the Model A installation. This allowed me a greater range
of options for an engine.
Since a normally aspirated engine loses about 3% of it's power for each 1000
feet in altitude, this would amount to a 30% loss in power up here. In
contrast, a turbo or supercharged engine will develop sea level horsepower
up here. Therefore, I am using a Subaru EA-82 turbocharged engine which
seems to be developing somewhere between 110 to 135 horsepower here
depending on my throttle setting. At take off the engine is pulling 45
inches of manifold pressure. The propeller is a special design that Duane
Woolsey gave me, it is an 80" x 52" with a wide chord blade. The reduction
unit is a 2.35 to 1.00 ratio, so when the engine is turning 4800 to 5500 rpm
the prop is only turning at 2042 to 2340 rpm. I cruise at about 4100 engine
rpm which translates to 1744 prop rpm, which is about the same speed as the
original Model A engine. This was what I wanted, to match the airframe that
Mr. Pietenpol designed.
The airframe is completely stock from the firewall back. However, since I
added brakes, extra fuel tank, tailwheel, tow hook, ELT, upholstery and
other goodies and with the extra engine weight because of the reduction
unit, my empty weight with oil and coolant is about 800 lbs.
Now, as to performance at this altitude: Last winter with the ground temper
ature at 50 degrees F:
10,000 feet I recorded over 1,100 fpm rate of climb
11,000 feet it had dropped off to 1,000 fpm:
12,000 feet I was so darned cold that I could hardly write, but it was still
climbing strongly and I can't read my writing!
I have had the plane up to 15,300 feet.
These numbers were developed with a gross weight of about 1,011 pounds
(pilot at 175 lbs and fuel at about 36 lbs). You can placard the plane at
any gross weight you would like, I did mine at 1,225 lbs because when I sell
it, I wanted it to fit into the Sport Pilot category. As you can see, the
actual gross wt. will be higher with full fuel and passenger. The only
caution here is not to do any aerobatics when you have the plane fully
loaded up.
Take off run seems to be quick, and, surprisingly even with full tanks and a
passenger, the performance is good. I have not recorded any of these
numbers.
As you can tell, I am a strong supporter of turbo'd engines for performance
at high altitudes. You won't go much faster, but you will have excellent
climb and take off characteristics. It handles in the air just like a
little fighter.
Oscar Zuniga came by a couple of months ago and took pictures of the plane
and then posted them with a write up on his web site at
http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/john_piet.html
Good luck on your project, I know you will enjoy it. The dreaming stage is
part of the fun of building.
Cordially, John NX114D

I was doing my engine test the other day and in the full power run I was able to
get 1900 rpm static run with an A-65 and a 72x42 prop. I expected a bit higher
rpm. Is this close to what others have gotten?
Also reading thru materials from EAA on inspections they talk about a prop log.
I went out to the local FBO to buy one and the owner said he doesn't keep them
for J-3's and such, he just makes entries in the airframe log. Does the DAR
want to see a Prop log?

His name is Scott out of EAA chapter 49. Here is the link that shows some pictures
of his plane. I met him at Flabapb a couple of years ago and was able to see
his plane. Tube fuse. SWEET!!!! He's a nice guy. Here is the email address
and the link to their club page. Look under "Members planes/projects. He is about
five down on the list. NOw his plane is dark green with a hint of yellow highlights.
There is also a gal at their chapter that flies a Piet, but I have
never met her. I'll send you a picture of them together at a Corona Piet fly-in
a few years back to your home email address.

Dick,
The taylorcraft with an A-65 is min 2070 and max 2250 rpm for static runup.
That is with a 70-72 " diameter prop of appropriate pitch to give the static
range, usually 42-44".
