Bill,
The major differences in the "Improved" Air Camper plans and the F&G plans are
in the fuselage and the landing gear. The tailplane is slightly different as
well. Good airplanes have been constructed from either set of plans, and from
the "long" fuselage which came out much later. Many planes are constructed from
a combination of the different versions. My own Air Camper, which flew for
the first time last week, has the long fuselage, the Vi Kapler 3-piece wing,
but the original F&G landing gear. Choose what you like and build it. It will
still be a Pietenpol. I doubt if any two of the half dozen or so Air Campers
built by BHP were identical.

Jack,
Bernard Harold Pietenpol built either 24 or 26 Air Campers. Doc Mosher's
directory lists them. No two of them were exactly alike. The last two were
built in 1960 and 1964, with Corvair engines.
Bill,
If you are seriously considering building a Pietenpol AirCamper, purchase the
plans directly from the Pietenpol Family.

It might be interesting to post details of the airplanes that BHP did build.
Chronological order and what improvements, or modifications he made on each
one would be good "historical" information. Engine type, Empty weight and
where the airplane is now also.
