    Corky, I think I have something that will work here. If you have a file that you pass around you will eventually run into a situation where 2 or more people open it and whoever saves it last is the only one who will show up. There is also the problem of how to keep it somewhere so that everybody can get at it. I just make a section on my website. If you go to the site on the home page on the upper left there is a Community Links section. The top link is to the Piet Directory. I started it off with myself. There is an online form that people can use to enter as much info as they feel comfortable doing. As entries are made the information is stored in a database that fills the directory page and sorts it by last name. I think this might be the easiest way to put the directory together and keep it alive. This will take you straight into the directory... http://www.flyingwood.com/directory.asp I'll help enter info if you're interested in using it. It wasn't difficult to make and I can change it if necessary. Glenn W.

Walt, Am still receiving these Piet builders reports, some on the Piet list and some direct to me. Steve Ruse yesterday morning volunteered to take this project and run but I haven't heard from him since. So, you Piets who know this computer language and techniques take it and run hard. I'll forward to you direct the names that were sent direct. That should make your list complete. Is this OK with you? From the response I think this list will help the Piet group become closer. Isabelle and I thank you Corky ------------------------------------------------------------------------- ----- See what's free at AOL.com.

    My friend Mark Langford from the KRNet and CorvAircraft lists made it to the fly-in at Alliance and stopped at the Lee Bottom field on his way back to his home field in Alabama. His pictures from Alliance included some of Frank Pavliga's "Sky Gypsy" ( http://krnet.org/alliance2007/ ). Mark spent some time in Australia a few weeks ago and sent this bit of information: >Speaking of famous Piets, did I tell you about the original Piet "Scout" >that I saw in OZ?

    Thanks Glenn But it's too late for me to learn new tricks. Steve Ruse and Walt Evans have both taken over the builder's directory, so called, and will see it through to everyone's satisfaction and that I'll be able to tell Isabelle where "ole Joe" lives. Thanks to all on the list for such an overwhelmning response. Corky ************************************** See what's free at http://www.aol.com.

    Steve/Walt You guys can feel free to use this too. I just thought that going forward it would make it easy for anyone to add themselves to a directory without creating work for anybody. Also don't have to worry about all the different versions of a file floating around. I can dump the directory to a spreadsheet or .pdf on a regular basis too. ...and I am willing to help enter all the directory info that popped up on the forum. Not trying to take over the process. Just trying to help make this as easy and convenient for all that seem to value having a directory. Another idea I had (however corny it might sound) if people think it would be good to have a picture of themselves with their directory listing, it would really make it nice for us to identify each other at Brodhead. Last year there would a lot of people that I didn't ever find out who they were but in the days after, learned that a lot of them were there. This would help us find each other.

    Dan Loegering Fargo, North Dakota Long fuse wood work 90% complete. Ribs done, tail surfaces done, metal for fittings purchased, Jenny style gear. Waiting for wood for gear and wire wheels to arrive. Continental A-65-8 purchased but needing overhaul (good winter project). One of three projects being actively built in this area (Ken Heide and Doug Isaacson are the other local builders) Lots of fun for the last two years - with other local projects going on, we have been sharing jigs and ideas, and maybe a root-beer on those late nights in the shop.

    Yes, I was thinking of doing that and adding the file as a link once a week/month so you can keep it handy. Can also add different sorts to the page so you can find people by state too.

    Glenn, Put my stuff in. Easy as pie. Just a suggestion, that you put an entry for final empty weight. When I built, had my Mentor hammering into my head not to add anything extra. So I'm kind of proud of my empty weight. (with about 2 changes, off hand, and the rest right to the plans) 1.7/1.8 oz fabric and PolyFiber. Long fuse, A-65, split gear, big wheels, 3 piece wing,, 595# empty wt. It climbs like a rocket. When I get back in the J-3 Cub for a BFR, it seems like it won't go up. Ain't Life Grand!

    Nice work Walt, shows that the long fuselage and three piece wing provide a minimal weight penalty. I plan on using the 1.7 fabric also and latex paint which may end up lighter than the Polyfiber stuff, but with a Corvair engine and wider fuselage I am hoping to be something under 700.
