I didn't hear about his problem, but I do know he only runs one mag. I bought
one of his double mag set ups and it is on my engine now and working fine so far.
I'd very much like to hear what happend as well since my crank driven mag is the
same set up.

May I ask what builders are using for leading edge wing strip material?
I need to purchase, fabricate and install a leading edge strip on the
wings. Maybe use Sitka, clear pine, a milled 2x4? It seems the
densities of Sitka, Pine, Douglas Fir and Cedar seem relatively close.
I priced a 14' length of clear pine at a finish dimension of 1" x 3" at
about $40 each. The price may come down using shorter pieces, then
scarfing the joints? Everything I pick up seems so heavy.

I used Sitka Spruce. Expensive, but light and strong. During my forced
landing last fall it took out a fence post with nothing but a small dent
to show for it.

John asks about what to use for the leading edge of the wings. What??? You
mean you haven't seen Mike Cuy's video and details on using a stair handrail
for this? One cut and you're done. Or check the archives on 'handrail' and
I'll bet you'll find Mike's description of how he did it. No shaping
required, just a cut of the prefab railing piece.

Reportedly, the Texas Air Museum at Stinson Field (San Antonio) has acquired
a 1932 Pietenpol with a Lambert 5-cylinder radial engine. This airplane was
formerly at another museum, possibly Rio Hondo (TX), and I assume it will be
in need of restoration. I need to get out there and see what they have!
Anybody know the history of this plane, who built it, anything? Know who
might be familiar with this engine and could work on it?

I used a piece of 5/4 clear pine. Or you can look in the regular pine bin
and pay less for a good hand picked clear piece. I forget how wide the
piece was , but when cut on a bevel it took care of both leading edges.
After bolting in place I used my little hand plane (no pun) to shape the
both leading edges.
There is nothing so satisfying as using a sharp plane to bring a piece
down to a perfect, uniform size.

The plan (Drawing No. 6) shows the two fittings that bolt to the lower longerons.
There is no room on top of the longeron for a bolt for the 2 bottom tabs. What
did you guys do?
Thanks,

If you are refering to the landing gear attach brackets, make them wider than
the plan calls for. The bolts will need to clear the ash cross members.

Sorry for my last post. I answered about the main gear brackets. On the tail
post, I used a piece of stainless rod and thru bolted those fittings. That thru
bolt then becomes the anchor for my seat belts and sholder harness.
