Gary and Skip,
Wanted to announce the birth of my new baby, NX747PF. Todd Clamp, local DAR
here in S. C. awarded it a Certificate of Airworthiness today. It's now an
official Pietenpol  airplane. Maiden flight will be tomorrow if weather and
runway paving  crew and asphalt trucks don't hinder me. Look forward to
hearing of your "birth announcements" soon.


March 29, 2004
 I flew about 30 minutes "crow hopping" Sat. just to get the feel of the
controls, another 30 minutes  actually flying yesterday and about 40 minutes
flying this afternoon with no problems. Everyone on ground says engine
sounds great. It's very quiet with my "ugly" muffler.
 Compared my airspeed to a handheld GPS  today and my airspeed indicator is
reading slow. At 2900rpm, GPS speed say's 80mph. That is not full throttle.
Had engine above 3000rpm yesterday, but did not have GPS then to check
speed.
If weather allows in the morning, will start to write down actual speeds at
various rpm's. Might drill another hole in static source to see if that
help's with indicator reading. 
I'll have more flying  info to share with you at Sun-n-fun. 
P. F.

I'd like to purchase a set of Continental (65,85 or 0-200) inter-cylinder baffles
and attach hardware.  I'm hoping that a Pieter has obtained one of these small
Continentals from a pressure-cowled airplane and went with the Cub style eyebrows,
which wouldn't require them.

Okay - they're not for a Piet, but I'm building one of those also and this is a
low-and-slow design.

Thanks!

Bill

Skip-- Great news regarding Phil's Piet.  Thank you for keeping us posted.

In reading Phil's words about his gps vs. his airspeed indicator, I hope he 
realizes that gps does not show airspeed at all......only ground speed.

Mike

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Aircamper paint schemes - 3D renderings

--> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "DJ Vegh" <djv@imagedv.com>

I've been working with a software development company designing 3D models
for a PC game.  One of the models is an Aircamper.  I've put alot of time
into the project and I figure the rest of the Piet community may as well
benefit from it.... So... I offer to any of you Aircamper builders out there
my services.  I can supply anyone with 3D renderings from multiple angles a
fully painted Aircamper with the paint scheme of your choice. You either
supply me with a written description of what scheme you would like or you
can even pencil up a quick sketch and email it to me.  I'll provide 10-15
different angles...  you can see a couple examples here. It takes me several
hours to do this for each one so I have to charge a small fee but it's
pretty cheap.
