I need to cover all bases here. I did a search for all major components, engine, prop and and even did a search upner the word Pietenpol. I pulled up all AD's and verified all complied with. Bases are now covered. Cy, you propably know Joe Norris from EAA. He will be doing my inspection. He sounds like a real nice guy, problem he will be bringing along his supervisior from the FAA district office who will be observing him performing the inspection. I spent some time going over the Piet tonight again, I now think I am ready.

Walt, Thanks for the offer. I threw this request out figuring someone had them just sitting around and it would be a good use for them (this is natural for a pack-rat scrounger like myself). I fully agree with the opinion that they're easy to make and I guess I shouldn't impose on others to create shortcuts for myself. I apologize to the group for wasting the bandwidth.

Then again if he's at a grass strip he'll be bogged down as we have had excessive amounts of rain and snow melt here in Ohio. The FAA guy friend of mine who signed off Don's plane told me that Don has done a very nice job. Jack Phillips is going full steam ahead. There is a possibility of having a whole new crop of Piets at Brodhead if everyone can make it and the weather cooperates.

Sun n Fun is quickly approaching ( 11 more days). All six of the Big Piet builders are going. Is anyone planning a get together? Maybe for lunch? Or maybe meet at a certain place at a certain time? Just wondering. I have not printed off a forum list yet, so I won't suggest anything until I see the days and times of the forums. It might be a good idea to meet just after a Piet oriented forum at the pavilion at the front of the museum. Just a thought.

It's not a very wide performance envelope and flying for an hour could possibly mean three or four circuits of the pattern at a big airfield. If there's a tower and you have to do an extended downwind for traffic spacing, make that 1.5 hrs. logged ;o) do not archive Oscar Zuniga San Antonio, TX mailto: taildrags@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net http://moneycentral.msn.com/tax/home.asp ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 12:20:04 PM PST US From: BARNSTMR@aol.com Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Sun n Fun --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: BARNSTMR@aol.com Just wondering.

The complete Pietenpol-List FAQ including these Usage Guidelines can be found at the following URL: http://www.matronics.com/FAQs/Pietenpol-List.FAQ.html Thank you, Matt Dralle Matronics Email List Administrator ****************************************************************************** Pietenpol-List Usage Guidelines ****************************************************************************** The following details the official Usage Guidelines for the Pietenpol-List. You are encouraged to read it carefully, and to abide by the rules therein. Failure to use the Pietenpol-List in the manner described below may result in the removal of the subscribers from the List. Pietenpol-List Policy Statement The purpose of the Pietenpol-List is to provide a forum of discussion for things related to this particular discussion group. The List's goals are to serve as an information resource to its members; to deliver high-quality content; to provide moral support; to foster camaraderie among its members; and to support safe operation. Reaching these goals requires the participation and cooperation of each and every member of the List. To this end, the following guidelines have been established: - Please keep all posts related to the List at some level. Do not submit posts concerning computer viruses, urban legends, random humor, long lost buddies' phone numbers, etc. etc. - THINK carefully before you write. Ask yourself if your post will be relevant to everyone. If you have to wonder about that, DON'T send it. - Remember that your post will be included for posterity in an archive that is growing in size at an extraordinary rate. Try to be concise and terse in your posts. Avoid overly wordy and lengthy posts and responses. - Keep your signature brief. Please include your name, email address, aircraft type/tail number, and geographic location. A short line about where you are in the building process is also nice. Avoid bulky signatures with character graphics; they consume unnecessary space in the archive. - DON'T post requests to the List for information when that info is easily obtainable from other widely available sources. Consult the web page or FAQ first. - If you want to respond to a post, DO keep the "Subject:" line of your response the same as that of the original post. This makes it easy to find threads in the archive. - When responding, NEVER quote the *entire* original post in your response. DO use lines from the original post to help "tune in" the reader to the topic at hand, but be selective. The impact that quoting the entire original post has on the size of the archive can not be overstated! - When the poster asks you to respond to him/her personally, DO NOT then go ahead and reply to the List. Be aware that clicking the "reply" button on your mail package does not necessarily send your response to the original poster. You might have to actively address your response with the original poster's email address. - DO NOT use the List to respond to a post unless you have something to add that is relevant and has a broad appeal. "Way to go!", "I agree", and "Congratulations" are all responses that are better sent to the original poster directly, rather than to the List at large. - When responding to others' posts, avoid the feeling that you need to comment on every last point in their posts, unless you can truly contribute something valuable. - Feel free to disagree with other viewpoints, BUT keep your tone polite and respectful. Don't make snide comments, personally attack other listers, or take the moral high ground on an obviously controversial issue. This will only cause a pointless debate that will hurt feelings, waste bandwidth and resolve nothing. ------- [This is an automated posting.]
