      how about using the serial number on the plans that came w/ DJ's project???
      
      in fact if I remember correctly you should have 2 sets of plans. One of the
      older small format 11X18 plans and the large format ones should be, if not
      the first in that series prety dang close to it, as DJ assisted in the
      development of the large format plans for the GN1 and if I recall correctly
      was the first to have a set.

      I bought from D.J. - on the line marked aircraft serial number-is that to be
      the plans serial number I have,or just a number I pick for it?

      Well I got about the same number answers for both choices.Called the FAA office
      this morning like I should have done and talked to a lady in the inspection department.She
      said whatever turns you on it doesn't matter! so I think I will
      put my plans number in that box and go with that but it is entirely up to the
      person registering it if it is plans built.thanks for the advice.Raymond

      Hi Oscar!!
        I agree, let's exchange pictures : ) I live in Santa Rosa, La Pampa, about 375 miles south of Cdoba (where Patagonia begins).  If you see the Marcelo Matocq's trip http://www.hangar57.com/Cristobal%20Colon%20.htm you will find thats not funny to fly over the Amazonas with a used Rotax engine! For the water, he use a truck tube connected to a fire extinguisher to inflate it, and fill the wings with inflated condoms!
        I would really like to mount in one of those fat multi engines whales and visit
      Brodhead sometime.  For now, let's exchange pictures.

      Max,
      
      I used to live in Murfreesboro, and I believe there was a man that was 
      building a Piet there.  I can't remember his name, but he owned the 
      motorcycle shop there in town.  Not the Harley place, but the Japanese 
      bike shop.  He also built a Thorp T-18 that his son is currently flying 
      out at MBT.  Look up the EAA chapter there, and they'll be able to point 
      you in the right direction.
      
      There was also a Piet based at the Lebanon, TN airport.  Last I saw it, 
      it hadn't been flown yet, but was very close.  That was well over a year 
      ago, so I'm sure it's been flown by now!

      I'm using MS24566-3B pulleys on my GN-1.  The attached photo shows the
      wing pulleys done per the cad plans.  The center section pulleys are
      much more complicated -- the plans are wrong (just one of dozens of
      errors).  The drawing was fudged to make the pulley fit on the spar.  In
      reality the bottom of the pulley protrudes through the bottom of the
      wing.  The center section pulleys have to be staggered so the cables
      don't interfere and canted 3 degrees aft because of the placement of the
      aileron control horn on the front stick.  
      
      Good Luck.

      I am getting ready to rig the aileron cables on my GN-1.I see in the
      plans that it calls for AN-210.I do not see the diameter and from
      looking at the plans the only thing I can find to give a size is the
      pulley guard distance of 1 1/16 - that indicates to me that the 2" O.D.
      ones are big enough though from reading the A/S catalog I'm not sure
      those are acceptible for flight controls on 90 degree bends.Is this what
      most are using? Raymond

      Yup that's about right from what I see on mine. As you can see I used
      cover plates cut in half to cover part of the hole and still leave the
      pulley sticking out below it. I considered using leather to cover the
      holes but I thought maybe on a real bad day the leather would get into
      the pulley and I'd be in a world of trouble.

      Picked it up today after a 10 hour round trip,  A65-8 130h SMOH with two 
      mags, prop hub, and carb. I need to ferret out a few things, eyebrows, 
      aircleaner assembly, and I am sure a few small items. I need to fab up 
      my exhaust system and need to do some research on carb heat and other 
      such details.

      Scott; I looked at the photo of your A65.  that piece of junk is dangerous 
      and you should never fly behind it in a Piet or anything else.  Get rid of 
      it immediately.  I'll give you $150 for it right now!  ;o)
      
      The engine is the heart of your Piet, isn't it?  You build the boat, the 
      gear, the tail feathers, the controls, even the wings- but it doesn't have a 
      heartbeat until that engine is in your hands.  When that mass of metal comes 
      into the shop, even before you tighten the bolts that hold the engine mount 
      to the airframe, flight suddenly becomes possible!
      
      I love engines.  They are big, heavy hunks of metal but they are the hearts, 
      too.  I love the smell of exhaust, and fuel, and oil, and all of that comes 
      from the engine.  Mind you, the higher plane of this feeling is when you 
      have a radial engine, but a pancake four will do just fine for everyday, 
      too!  And considering that the engine represents probably half the cost of 
      your airplane (if not more), when you have that piece and the prop safely in 
      the shop, you're looking at little piddly costs from then until the end of 
      the project.  You're over the hump.
      
      Good on you, Scott.  Put the heart in your airplane and you will be so much 
      closer to flying!  The heartbeat will be ready as soon as you hook that fuel 
      line to the carb and the ignition switches to the mags.  From there, it's 
      downhill and the next thing you know, you'll be lining up on the runway 
      centerline with the throttle ready to go full forward.
