Hello,
I'm sure there are folks out there that have been to Brodhead many times more than
I. I don't recall seeing more than one GN-1 there each time I have been.
Also I never saw it parked with the Piets but on the other side of the field.
I believe I saw a remark somewhere (possibly on the Piet list) by some GN-1 owner
saying they didn't feel welcome. This is very unfortunate because IMHO most
Piet owners don't feel that way, it is those very vocal few that are the problem.
Anyway a trip to Brodhead is well worth it, 99 percent of the people you
will meet there are super.

BTW I don't even bother with that other Wisconsin Flyin anymore.

Hi Bert, Howard,
This is one "Doc" but I'm not sure you are addressing
me. I see your question was about Piets at Broadhead.
I truely don't know since I have never been there. I
have only been a member a couple of months. I have
heard through this newsgroup that GN-1's do go to
Broadhead, but there are others who can tell you much
more about that. If I am the wrong "Doc" please
forgive my intrusion, but if you are new to the group,
welcome and nice having you aboard. I will happily
answer any questions I can.

I seem to remember this topic a while back, but does anyone have good suggestions
for a light plastic tube that could be glued next to the fuselage side stringer
under the covering to run the mag wires up through?
I think I'd like to use a conduit type arrangement rather than affixing the wires
in case I should ever have to fix or replace them without ripping off the covering.
Thanx!

Not sure what's up with the "piets near Tulsa" subject but if someone's
interested, there are several in the area, including at least one GN1 (pic
attached and size reduced for quicker D/L). I included a pic of the tail
number if someone wants to look up the owner on landings.com
Also, try contacting EAA Tulsa Chapter 10: http://www.eaa10.org/index.htm
Actually, there's a LONG history of Pietenpol support in the Tulsa (MY
hometown) area. Those folks have known about the Pietenpol for a LONG time!

Way to go, Greg and Dale! I hope you can get NX18235 in the air soon. I have
about 6 hours now on NX899JP and have flown it comfortably in temps as low as
43 F. As Walt says, Ain't Life Grand!

go here and you will see a picture of the conduit I used
http://imagedv.com/aircamper/log/image-pages/09-05-04.htm
I got it from Tap Plastics
http://www.tapplastics.com/shop/product.php?pid142&PHPSESSID20041027075604198496889
$4 for a 6' piece of 3/4" square tubing.
I secured it by drilling and bolting it to the side of the fuse with countersink
screws and lock nuts.

Hi Bob,
I agree with you. I feel there is no room (for me
anyway) for short-sightedness (for lack of a better
term) in running down someone else's airplane for any
reason (other than gross safety concerns and those
comments should be made only with adequate
documentation and not opinion). If I choose to build
a Pietenpol, and I choose to make safe modifications,
based on many years of aviation experience and
research, then it is my right to do so. I would not
befriend anyone who would run-down someone else's
airplane just because it didn't meet the expectations
of of what that person(s) thought an airplane should
or should not look like or represent. I do hope that
this attitude does not prevail in this group of what
seems like a very decent bunch of aircraft builders
and pilots. (Sorry, but I just felt like preaching
today).
I hope not to offend anyone, but I have seen this
attitude many times in the last 30 plus years of
aviation I have enjoyed.
With respect to all,
Doc

There are a few recorded incidences of snow in San Antonio, but I was
planning the skis back when I lived in Oregon and there was much, much more
snow available and many winter activities. As far as skiing on the
Riverwalk in downtown San Antonio, not even James Bond with his exotic
machinery could weave his way down that obstacle course!

Yes, you're the wrong "Doc". He's no doubt referring to Doc Mosher, who
is/was also on this list, and who maintains a really nifty listing of Piets,
Piet owners, N-numbers, and related information. The list is periodically
updated and I believe it does include Sky Scouts and GN-1s if they are
recorded and the data is readily available. And Doc frequents the Brodhead
event since he lives up that way (Oshkosh, I believe).
There has been some hesitancy on the part of some, to recognize GN-1s as
belonging to the Pietenpol group. Most, however, are here to have a good
time building and flying Piets, their offspring, and reasonable facsimiles
thereof, while still respecting the Pietenpol family and their traditional
ownership of the marque.
PS to Doc Mosher: be sure to change the next directory listing to show me as
the new owner of NX41CC!!

I thought there was probably another (or more) "Doc"
out there, I just hadn't seen him (her) as yet. :) I
responded because I wasn't for sure and wanted to be
friendly. I do respect the Pietenpol markee and
wouldn't expect a very differently built airplane to
be called a Pietenpol. I haven't heard anyone call
the GN-1 anything but the GN-1. I could be mistaken
of course. My "Piet" is going to have some
modifications which to me are minor but to others may
seem more so. The basic design, though, is still a
Piet but with enough dis-similarities to be somewhat
unique. I am encorporating the things that I have
found great about different airplanes I have flown,
things that I found to make some airplanes more unique
than others. I may not end up with a "Piet" by
traditional values, but down, deep inside, it will
still be a "Piet" if nothing more than pure genetic.

Group,
My nephew is in gradeschool, and is doing a science project on the Pietenpol
Airplane. He is looking for an inexpensive model to build, and information to
write a report. I have directed him to the Family Pietenpol Web site, and
also tried to impress him with the wonderful comradery that this design has
brought upon the generations, but I can't find a model for him to build. Does
anyone know of where a model of a Pietenpol Airplane can be had ?

There is/was a Pietenpol cardmodel on the www.fiddlersgreen.com site. <A
">Light Aircraft from
Fiddlers Green There is a free J3 Piper Cub download: <A
">The Piper Cub Free
downloadable cardmodel model I have built many of them, in different sizes,
using paper from 8.5" x 11" to 3" x 5" card stock. There is also a balsa model
at
: House of Balsa Pietenpol Kit - Kit (ID: 1441), also Peck sells one PECK
PP001. Retail price: $11.88. I believe DJ also has plans for a 1/7 scale
electirc powered RC Pietenpol.

A personal thought on the leading edge material. I went to our local home
center (Menards) and purchased a piece called a brick molding. It goes on a
house at the bottom of the siding above where a brick facing starts. It is
available in long pieces. One piece will do a wing and the center section.
It is finger jointed clear pine. Although it is a strange shape, it is
large enough that a couple passes through the table saw and use of a disk
sander produced a very respectable leading edge. Since it is for exterior
use I assume the glue in the finger joints is water proof. Once the leading
edge is bolted on and covered with aluminum or plywood, a finger joint
couldn't separate if it tried. My project is not completed, but the leading
edge is in place and is going to work fine

Chuck,
On any given day you can usually find a "Peanut Scale" model on E-Bay.
That would be a small rubber band powered model you build much like the real
model. I think it has 26" WS, and you wind it up and off it goes. A very
nice plane covered with tissue after the stick construction is finished.
Chuck, I decided to look before posting, and here you go. Found one.....
5928963200. Go to Ebay and paste this number in and it is just what you are
looking for.

Chuck,
I've a bunch of spruce left unused from Repiet. If someone would scale it
down and give me a bill of materials I'd be happy to furnish it for the project.
