    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Oscar Zuniga" <taildrags@hotmail.com> Does anybody happen to have "typical wording" for logbook entry to be used for return to service after annual inspection of an aircraft? This is for experimental, not certified, but is probably the same wording. Thanks. Oscar Zuniga San Antonio, TX mailto: taildrags@hotmail.com website at http://www.flysquirrel.net

    Chuck: Don't forget that out of the 25,000 hours my dad has in his logbook, around 5,000 of those hours are flying the Rocky mountains from El Paso to all points north through the mountains to include Salt Lake, Boise, Portland and points in between and to Casper and Phoenix and ABQ. Didn't he ink the low routes on your wall chart when he was at your house? If not, I'll ask him to recall the low routes and I'll snail mail a map. S.B.

    Subject: Re: Price for a new A-65
    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Jack Phillips" <pietflyr@bellsouth.net> Bert, I don't know about a certified shop, but I had the following costs when I rebuilt mine: Runout core $1500 Overhaul Crankshaft, $975 Conn. Rods, Rocker Arms, Gears Overhaul Crankcase $575 Millenium Cylinders $3250 New Camshaft $225 New Cam Followers $500 New Slick Mags $830 New Bearings, carb kit, $175 gaskets, etc, Total $8,030 Some of these costs are approximate (I'd have to dig through the invocies to see what I actually paid), but overall it's pretty close. I have essentially a brand new engine and it runs very well. I can't imagine how you could pay more for an overhauled engine (except for the labor cost). My cylinders were shot and would have to be rebuilt. El Reno wanted $550 apiece to rebuild them, and they still would have been 60 years old. New Milleniums are $800 each, with new pistons, rings, valves and valve springs, and rocker shafts. I decided it was worth it. Crankshaft was done at Aircraft Specialties and crankcase was done at Divco. Assembly took a day and was done by me under the supervision of an A&P, IA. The FAA didn't even balk at giving me a 25 hour test flight period, even though I had no original logs for the engine, and told them I had rebuilt it myself. I did show them all the green and yellow tags for all the parts I had put in it.

    Chuck, If S.B.'s dad comes up with a couple routes over the Rockies that are less than 7000', north of Vegas, I'd sure like to know about them. I've only got a couple 1000 hours total but most of them are flying out of Ogden UT going east over the Rockies or west over the Sierras. Out of Ogden or Salt Lake heading to the east you've got 9000' peaks, just to get up to Evanston you've got to fly the passes and go out over the salt flats north-west of Ogden to climb. Re: your "wired-down" mixture control, it's just about impossible to get enough power with a single engine plane for take-off from airports in the inter-mountain west without leaning a lot. Failure to lean your engine is one of the most frequent reasons for aborted take-offs for folks flying in from flat country for fuel. The average airport elevation for the "great basin" is 5000'. The airports actually in the mountain valleys like Laramie WY are at 7000', if memory serves. All along the front range of the Rockies, you're starting from an airport of ca. 5000' and trying to go between mountain peaks of 9000' with passes at 6500' min. The "lowest" route I can think of for a Piet would be Casper, Rawlings, Evanston, Ogden, even then you'd have to be able to lean your carb and climb to 7000', the mountain valleys are wide and dry but it's kinda spooky to look up at the tops.

    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: Rcaprd@aol.com Sterling, Unfortunately, we didn't put any marks on my big chart. I really enjoyed having you and your dad here, and hearing about some of his adventures. It would be very helpful, if you would ask him to recall those 'Low Routes' and mail them to me. I'll go over them, and maybe give him a call sometime, to answer the inevitable questions. I'll bet he would enjoy recalling those flights !! Gordon, Although I haven't got any experience in Mountain Flying, I always read everything I can on the subject, and saving all your advise. Some of the small strips present quite a challenge to get into and out of. There is a good article in this month's AOPA magazine on the subject. It says "Terrain is absolute. It's like the Terminator - there's no arguing with it and no reasoning with it." If I do this flight, I plan on a gradual introduction to the higher terrain (short hops), and talking with all the locals about the routes. I think it would also be necessary for me to limit my cargo to 50 lbs. Chuck G.
