Scott,
If you have a Harbor Freight Tools Company near you....look in the store for
a Vise Stand. It is a nice three foot high metal stand on four L-bent legs with
a small try on the bottom level. Make a pattern of your prop bolts and drill
out the pattern on the top of this stand. Bolt your A65 engine to the stand and
you have a very nice engine builder stand for about $30.00 bucks. Then you
can spin the motor and work on it as you need plus.... it is off the floor and
secure in a wide base stand out of the way until needed. If you need some photos,
advise and I can send you some.

system and need to do some research on carb heat and other such details.

Thank you very much guys! I cannot either wait to see the finished product!! In
the meantime i'm enjoying the construction. I guess I will cover it with an argentinian
made dacron fabric (much less expensive). Saludos
Santiago

Great website Santiago (mu bueno). Even though I took two years of Spanish
in junior high I am embarrassed to say that I cannot understand a single
thing on the site. Hope to see you at Broadhead.

| Subject: | 41CC cruise performance |
Well, today was a bit windy but it was pretty much right down the runway so
I went up for a while. Trimmed out in level cruise with about 1/2 tank and
just me aboard, things settled down and I intentionally set 2350 RPM on the
tach (not sure if it's calibrated though). Level cruise about 68 MPH
indicated. This is Pietenpol country.
If I firewall the throttle I can increase cruise to 70-75 easily, but the
airplane feels like it's fighting me a little bit and I have to keep my head
down behind the windscreen. If I set things like they really want to be, I
can hold my head normally and things settle down pretty well.
I made a high-speed pass again, but with a 15-20 MPH headwind right down the
runway, nobody was impressed when 41CC came purring down the runway at a
groundspeed just a little better than the tractor that was mowing the areas
alongside the runway.
My landing wasn't anything to write home about, but the wind was at least
15, quartering when I touched down, so I was happy. The tires and spring
gear take all the embarassment out of bounced landings, I'm glad to say.
This is a fun airplane!

| Subject: | steam vent and fuel tank |
Thanks to Douwe Blumberg, Walt Evans, and Dan Helper for responding to
my pleas for advice. I think the steel strapping for the fuel tank
sounds like a good method but I also have some nylon straps that would
work well if I find a way to tighten them. I am going to try a 3/8 hole
for the steam vent and can go larger if needed. I am still a ways from
running the engine but would like to have the machine work on the head
done so I can install it. I am going to try to get to sun'n'fun at
least 2 days 17&18 and maybe I will get to see a real live Pietenpol
there
