Dear Commandante Zuniga of the San Geronimo TACO Wing......
I confess to divulging sensitive information regarding the TACO thrust
augmentor system to the general Pietenpol audience,
but I stand firm in my conviction that I have not disclosed details of
exactly how the Beans-Rice-Salsa combination is stored, activated, and
exhausted without damage to surface paint, dopes, cables or
turnbuckles. If you recall, we signed an agreement with Team Franklin
before his passing at La Chita's in San Antonio at midnight over margaritas
in May of 03. The napkin we designed this system on is still at the
undisclosed location and only TACO President Senior Sterling Brooks has the
code to access that paperwork. (or carried in the "football" by
a member of his security force)
Best regards,
Mike C. in Ohio

Hi everybody
Just a note to say how much I enjoy this group. Have not started my
building yet but building my reference file.
"Cranium Rectal Inversion" I have decided to shorten that to CRI a great
term, probably could apply to all of us at sometime or another.
Anybody close to Boise ID.
Best regards
Steve G

Ken
You can build the Piet cockpit to fit you, its not like building a kit
plane. I built my fueslage 2" wider and leaned the rear seat back 3" to make
it more comfortable, also lowered the seat a bit (Barry told me that he
leaned his seat back 4"). Highly recommend building a mock cockpit first out
of scrap lumber as Tony B. recommends. You will also learn a lot about
building the Piet fuselage that way while working with cheap lumber,
(especially if you are a first time builder like I am).
One good point Jack made concerning a wider fuselage is the cabane fittings
on the wing center section, I built a 36" center section (per the Bill Rewey
plans) so that really didn't matter much. Plus it gives you the space for up
to 17 gallons of fuel in the center section (and a bit more wingspan).

Well, Mike may not have divulged exactly how his thrust augmentor works,
but I have a resonably good idea of the configuration. I think the
smoke system is a decoy and actually has nothing to do with thrust
augmentation.
During that trip to Brodhead, there were a couple of takeoffs where Mike
took off first and I departed in his, uh, wake. There was a distinctly
sulfurous smell, leading me to believe he had installed a faulty
catalytic converter in his exhaust system, but now I realize that it was
probably associated with thrust augmentation. I thought I could hear a
sound akin to fabric ripping as well, but could see no loose ends of
tattered fabric on his airframe. His plane climbed rather sharply each
time I heard this sound.
I have tried to emulate this system on my own Pietenpol, but since I
have cushioned leather seats (unlike the plain plywood slab Mike is
perched upon), my efforts tend to get somewhat muffled and diluted,
acheiving the smell, but not the thrust and noise. However, I haven't
tried the BRS combination. Further testing may be required. Perhaps
I'll fly down to Stanton's Barbeque on the South Carolina line this
weekend and try a new combination of pulled pork, slaw and baked beans.
I love research.

When I was in A&P school we had a Beech 18 airframe for the students to
abuse. It had a relief tube with a venturi on the bottom. I used to get
great pleasure when I told students that was the ground communication device
to the cockpit. I wish I had a camera for all the time I saw a mouth or lips
on that venturi.
