Any Canadian Pietenpol enthusiasts going to the COPA Convention in Wetaskiwin
AB. next weekend. I'm flying mine from Winnipeg (almost 800 miles). It would
be very cool if a couple of us showed up together. My stops are Brandon, Russel,
Yorkton, Lanigan, Saskatoon, Unity, Provost, Sedgewick-Killam, and Camrose.
Hopefully will make it in three days. (I have 4 hours of flight endurance,
but my butt sure doesn't)
The Reynolds Museum in Wetaskiwin has a Model A Powered Pietenpol on display.
Should be quite a good time.

Boy Accused Of Stealing Small Plane, Taking 30 Minute Flight
FORT PAYNE, Ala. -- This joyride lasted about a half hour, in the air.
Police in Fort Payne said a 14-year-old boy has been arrested for stealing
a Cessna. He's accused of taking off and landing twice before being arrested.
The teen suffered minor cuts and bruises on the second landing because the
plane came down hard. Its propeller dug into a road beside the airport.
Police Chief David Walker said the teen found a key in the unlocked plane,
started the engine and "The next thing he knew, he was in the air."
The teen, who had never flown before, was believed to have been in the air
for nearly 30 minutes. Fort Payne is about 80 miles northeast of Birmingham.

Mike,
Dang, I've been doing this flying thing for nearly 50 years and thought it
was harder than that. I must just be a slow learner.

I'd bet $3.00 cash money that the kid plays a lot of video games.
I'm surprised he didn't try to loop it!

The Fort Payne airport is in a valley between two mountains. He's lucky he
didn't fly into one of them. Been there, didn't do it!

One news report I read said that he came from a relatively poor family and likely
did not have access to any flight
simulator games. The reports said he took his mothers minivan, drove to the airport
and after finding keys in the
plane he started it up and taxied it around until he found himself airborne. He
landed it once, went for a joy ride over
the city, and then on the second landing attempt it got squirrely and he departed
the runway, heading for the airport
fence. He shoved in the throttle and cleared the fence but then stalled it and
crashed on a road.

Well, the kid shows initiative and some ability. Maybe we should start a
kitty for him to take flying lessons when he gets out of the slam.
