Hi Jim et all:
First of all let me apologize to the list for not properly introducing my
self first. I just came across the e-bay listing for that "thing" and
thought I ought to pass it along at least for the amusement of the
participants here. I have been lurking and receiving the digest form of the
list for some time now and just switched over to the real time list so I can
receive the photos I have been missing up to now.
At any rate, yes I have more than a passing interest in the Pietenpol. I
have started on a GN1, if you can call getting the fuselage sides jig built.
Yes, I know to purist the GN1 is not the real thing but I have had the plans
for I think something like 10 yrs. I came across DJ Vegh's site and it
served as inspiration to do what ever I have to do, to get started on my
own. So I have nothing much to show yet. I had originally intended to build
a Jodel DR1050 ( http://community.webshots.com/album/147451245dhnmgI ) But
for now I have chosen something a bit more basic and generally affordable. I
have a 110 hp Corvair engine pictured in the above link w/ all the right
numbers and specs. I also just scored from e-bay, a N.O.S. crank for the
Corvair as modified by Mr. Pietenpol himself w/ the hub and safety shaft.
Can you believe only $125.00? .
I live just outside of Portland where I make a living as a carpenter. Mostly
finish work, cabinetry and stair work. But sometimes we gota-do what we
gota-do to put food on the table and pay the note on the house. And it is a
new one to us, and has a fantastic 2 story gambrel roofed garage that houses
my wood shop upstairs and is a suitable location to build my dream. Though I
have been living here in the US for nearly 25 yrs I am a native of Venezuela
and thus Spanish is my mother tongue.
So for now I will most likely just sit and listen, and learn as much as I
can form the folks on the list, until I have a question of some sort.
Kind regards:
Michael Silvius in Scarborough, Maine.

Larry-- great to hear you are getting used to your new Pietenpol and that
you were able to fly it to
a nearby fly-in. You're joining the crowd of us who know how gusty days
can be a far different experience
in a Piet than in most any other kind of aircraft. Heat, thermals, wind,
departing aircraft ahead of you---can
all make for some wild stick movements.
Evenings just before sunsets tho are very sweet.

Good decision Michael, most everyone goes through that phase when deciding
what plane to build, (Pitts, 3/4 scale P-51, Falco, etc). I know I did. Once
you get into building your Piet you will be very glad that you did not take
on anything more complex as your first project. You won't believe how much
work and money is involved in building even something as "simple" and
"inexpensive" as a Piet.

Rick,
Two or three coats of latex are ok (depends in light or darker colors) then, if
you want a gloss look, just add a coat of clear urethane paint with a little
amount of (we name it here plastifier) they add this to the paint when painting
plastic fenders and car parts (like some Cadillacs), this prevents the urethane
paint from "breaking" with the normal movement of the dacron...
I use this system and has worked now for 6 years so forth in my oldest proyect.
The pilot that advised me, has already 8 years with his finish in perfect
shape.
We fly almost all week ends, and holidays, so no hangar airplane here.(only during
the week days).

Hey Larry,
Bouncy Piet rides are pretty much the norm, here in the Land of Oz (central
Kansas)...except for as Mike C said, just before sunset. The past two Sunday
mornings, I've been flying to Strother Field, about 30 miles to the South, for
Aerobatic instruction in a Decathelon. Both days the winds were 180=BA @ 20 to
30, which was pretty much right down the runway. Mix in the thermals, and
you stir the stick in the Piet almost constantly, and just forget about keeping
accurate heading and altitude. However, I prefer to just ride out the small
upsets, and let 'er just right herself...till the Big thermal comes along,
usually over a brown dirt field. A couple of times I was determined to see=20just
how much the big one would throw her off without a reply on the stick, and it
raised the wing about 30=BA, and turned me 90=BA off heading !! Bouncing around
in
a Piet is just another one of the fun and challenging aspects of being at one
with her. The landing and roll outs in the strong headwinds, were probably
the shortest I've ever done. I truly Love to fly my plane !!
Chuck G.
NX770CG
Flying the Decathelon through loops, spins, slow rolls, and hanging
upside-down on the harness, sure is a different a different animal than I'm=20used
to !!
What a Hoot !!

Stands for Flying and glider manual, there are 5 of them 1929 to 1933 published
by EAA. They are copies of Modern Mechanics' Flying Manual published in those
years. The Pietenpol aircamper is in the 1932 edition. You can get them from
EAA, worth reading.

Larry,
I have over 400 hours in the Piet, 1600 hours in taildraggers and teach
tailwheel transition. Every landing is different in a Piet. Nothing ever
gets automatic. When I flew to Brodhead in 99 it was difficult to make two
good landings in row. Each landing was different because the color of the
runways and white numbers and the heat was different at each one. Each one
felt like you were riding a bronco. You fly this plane to the tiedown on
windy days.
Ted
P.S. the bird farts are really aggravating when the bird is ahead of you
soaring along for a while without moving its wings.
