I have a piet that was built in 1975 and it has a 1965 110 hp corvair, the
original prop was a 66/30 prop and it was broken when they had an off airport
accident. We got an another wood prop but all I can get out of the engine (new
rebuilt is 2250 rpms ant 5500 feet elevation in Casper, WY. Wayne in his book
talks about it running over 3000 rpms, what is the normal rpm a corvair should
run?

How is your rebuilt engine set up? Do you have the blower on it, is it built per
william wynns plans, with an ot 10 cam? what kind of carburation? what kind
of ignition? A common problem is assembling the engine with the timing one tooth
off. my cam was actually marked wrong, and I was glad that I took the time
to do a cam degree check.
The static rpm will be less than take off or cruise rpm

Subject: | Status on the crippled piet! was aircamper for sale |
Oh thanks mike, now the bidding war will ensue! I was hoping to pick it
up for a song!
(Just kidding really)
My Piet is back in the air with a new prop and rebuilt landing gear. It
took three months of spare time to learn to carve a prop, but it is done
and spins smoother than the original. I only put on circuit on it
before landing to adjust the ailerons. Discovered that I also had a
slightly bent aileron horn on the damaged wing that resulted in a
just-left-of-center stick placement to hold straight and level. Engine
crank run-out was dead on the money, thank heavens for wood damage
absorbing qualities.
Also, I've given up hopes of going to OSH together as a gaggle. Only
three of us were able to commit. I will probably fly on in myself,
since I'm interested in the 30 or so Stinsons that plan to be there. (My
current _other_ project).
See you all in Brodhead.
Steve E

Steve,
I'll be going Wichita to Brodhead...via the 'Southern Route'. Take off here
in the middle of July, head to Dallas and hook up with Jim M., Max D., Terry
B., Hank S. Then over to Shreveport Louisiana to meet Corky and Isabelle,
then up to Brodhead, and on up to Oshkosh. I'm planning on going on north up
around Lake Michigan, climb to the highest altitude she's ever been to, to cross
the lake near the Macanac Bridge, down thru the state of Michigan and thru
Ohio to Columbus, then on to my hometown of Wheeling WV. Then back to Wichita,
thru St. Louis and meet up with Dennis E. My big adventure will be three
weeks right, now, but I'm trying to get one more week off work (unpaid) to
complete. If I can't get that last week off, I might not make it to Oshkosh, instead
go home to Wheeling.
Any other Pietenpolers along this route, please let me know, and maybe we can
meet at some small airport along this route I have planned !! It's the ONLY
way to see Americana !! I'm really looking forward to this journey.
