    --> Pietenpol-List message posted by: "Gordon Bowen" <gbowen@ptialaska.net> Clif, Sorry, gotta disagree with you. You put shellac down first then an epoxy, you'll have the epoxy peeling off in nothin' flat. The FAA's Advisory Circulars AC 43.13-1B and 2A, have a good write up on how to preserve aircraft wood. The best I know of is a good marine grade epoxy. Dilute the mixed system with a little MEK or acetone, and spray or brush it on in a couple thin coats. Wait no more that a couple hours between coats. Marine grade epoxies have several additives that other grade epoxies don't have: a) generally they have an alcohol dilutent that is attracted to the moisture in the wood, thus a better bond, 2) a biocide additive that resists mold (or mould, dependin' on who's king's english you're usin', mate).

    From: "Phillips, Jack" <jphillip@alarismed.com>
    Yesterday evening I flew NX899JP, "Icarus Plummet", for the first time since the forced landing I had in November. Plane handled great, slightly better than before due to better rigging, and the ground handling with the new BHP type coil-spring tailwheel is much improved over what I had originally. I must admit, I was a little more nervous flying it after the rebuild than I had been for the initial flight, wondering if I had found everything wrong with it. Logbook entries took 4 pages to list all the repairs. Now I've just got to put about 25 hours on it in the next month and I'll see y'all at Brodhead! Jacl Phillips Raleigh, NC

I was reprimanded today for doing fly-bys in an empty pattern so that Dale could take video of the tail as I flew by. I am just about ready to give up flying at THAT airport. {;-) The rules there are about the same as in England!

    Happy Father's Day is right. Couldn't have much better a present than the birth of our first granddaughter - on Father's Day no less. Can't wait to get her in the Piet and start making airplane noises.

    Jack, Great to hear you got 'er in the air again !! With a streach of good weather, you'll have those 25 hours flown off in no time. Chris, Ya shouldn't worry much about those whiners always looking for something to complain about. Mike, If you run out of that smoke oil you use, I'll have plenty of Baby Oil with me !! Maybe this will be the year we 'Blacken the Sky with Pietenpols' !!! Chuck G.
