I know it has really fired up a few guys on the list and hopefully it will make others so worked up that they will push ahead now with their projects and get them to the flying stage. Hearing this story must be a great motivator. After meeting Chuck last year at Brodhead he impressed me as the kind of guy who just discovered a whole new dimension of Piet flying----barnstorming. It was evident that he was loving every minute of going cross country in his plane and meeting new people and landing at places he'd never seen before. While eating the great grilled pork chop dinner with Chuck there under the pavillion he told me how his employer would not let him take off an extra week of leave without pay so right after Brodhead and Oshkosh he had to bust butt to get home. He talked about working out a way to take at least two, if not three weeks of leave all at once next year which is exactly what he's doing and experiencing now. I took a photo of his plane at Brodhead last year and included it in this mail. When dinner was over, the gusty winds that kept almost all of us on the ground that day finally subsided towards sunset you should have seen him when about 7 or 8 of us Piets launched in the air and he about pooped himself. I mean he asked all kinds of questions like how tight to we fly, in what order do we go up, how big a circle do we fly around the field, when do we land, should we use hand signals. I told him, "Chuck, what you do is you keep your eyes peeled, you keep your head on a swivel, don't make any turns without clearing it by eye and lifting a wing, and just have a ball, ok ?" Oh, really ? That's it ? Nothing formal, right ? "Nope, just have fun." He was like a kid in a candy store ! You go Chuck !

Will any of the Piets be at the show this year?

Would be a perfect setting to do an interview, with all the homebuilt and vintage aircraft there. In this fast paced age of regulations and conformity, timeframes and deadlines, folks might enjoy seeing a man touring the county and living out a dream in machine of his own making. If you run it by Chuck, and he likes the idea, I'll get try to get ahold of some of the stations up there and see if they can set something up...might be a nice highlight towards the end of an extraordinary trip! take care, Jon Hey Corky, Just got to thinking...(uh oh) If Chuck stops in Creve Coeur, Mo. on his way back to Kansas from W.V. , might be a good op to get the St. Louis news crew there and do a bit on him.

Has his smoke rig repaired but is looking for a Wal Mart so he can buy some baby oil. He plans a fuel stop at Kawanee, Ill. He asked me if I thought they had a Wallie World there. Imagine asking a rebel about Wal Marts up nawth. Anyway hewas ready to t/o for Brodhead. Thought it would be less than 6 hrs even though he has a headwind. All you Pieters get ready for the big entrance about 5 pm YCDT. Corky, Chuck Gantzer's Operations NCO I apologize for sending the previous e mail to Mike King through the net. I was careless and will try not to bother the group in the future. ________________________________ Message 14 ____________________________________ Time: 10:52:14 AM PST US From: Michael D Cuy Subject: Pietenpol-List: Clow Field on the west side of Chicago has a Wal Mart --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Michael D Cuy Corky-- there is a nice airport in Plainfield, IL that has a new Wal Mart right smack dab off the North end of the airport. You could walk there in less than 5 minutes. Plus there is a good cafe on the airport for some lunch or dinner and decent tie downs and or hangar space. Great airport. They call it Clow International. Uncontrolled field. Tell him to avoid Meigs:) Mike C. ________________________________ Message 15 ____________________________________ Time: 11:01:43 AM PST US From: Michael D Cuy Subject: Pietenpol-List: Galesburg, Davenport, or Clinton, IL --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Michael D Cuy After further review, as the NFL refs say, Chuck is no where near going to hit Clow on his route. He's better off stopping at bigger (I mean bigger than Hootersville) towns to find a Wal Mart. Gotta teach that boy things like circling a town to see how far the shortest walk is to the nearest motel from the airport. Did that at Watertown, Wisconsin and by gum there was a Holiday Inn Express that overlooked my tie down spot !!!!! The rotating beacon and runway lights lulled me to sleep that night.
