Hmmm... this "Chuck" guy, did he by any chance have a faint smell of baby

Here is a link to a local news program. Watch the video about
Williamson, GA. Just after the Flour-Bombing, is that a Piet or Skyscout
doing a fly-by? I need to track down this airplane if it is another
"local" Piet. http://www.11alive.com/video/player.aspx?aid=74996&bw

fittings done, Center section done, Ribs done, All tail feathers done.
Landing gear started,control stick mostly done. Excellent woodwork.
Since I am one of the 6 Big Piet Builders, this project is for sale.
Make me an offer.

I am just wondering how may Grega fliers are on the list. What stage
is your project in? What fuselage? What engine? Any other mods?
Myself, I have ordered "Complete" plans from a "guy" in Oregon. We
will see what arrives at my door if anything. I have been practicing my
welds, I was getting a little worried, but I am feeling better about
them. I have a Corvair core, ready for tear down.
Thanks all,
-Ryan

Could this be a VW powered Ultra Piet? I don't think that it is Sky
Scout.

Looks like Continental power (and has the matching sound) Scout with
modified cabanes and landing gear configuration. (tripod cabanes)
The wing, tail, and fuselage look fairly classic Piet for the most part.
You can hear the guy power-up after he drops his flour.

Good video--neat story.

You may want to know the "fabric punch", test data on these or any older
Piper struts. Was an old AD on rust forming on the lower end of all
Piper struts many years ago. The test for the AD was to use a fabric
test punch to see if the lower side of the lower end of the struts were
thinned due to rust on the inside of the strut. The AD also had a
remedial action on all Piper struts that did pass the test, that
included 1/8" drilling a hole in the struts near the top and putting in
preservation oil, sloshing around the oil on the inside and then
draining. The AD included this "punch test" must be done at all annual
inspections of the plane. Had to do it on my old Piper Colt, until had
to replace the struts. Secondly, struts aren't too hard to make with
streamlined tubing and a good welder, then you know what you've got.
You can get the measurements for size and design off of any ole struted
Cub laying around in somebodies hanger.

There are some nice photos of the Roundup Piet, the kids working on it,
and historical photos as well at the Billings Gazette web site:
http://www.billingsgazette.net/
Gotta scroll down a way to get to the link. Don't know howlong they'll
be linked off their front page, but I'm sure they'll be archived too.

Thanks for the heads up on those struts. They don't come up when
searching Aviation-Parts- J-3 wing struts.
Unfortunatly, they are a diffrent style from what I am looking for.
Also, to respond on the same thread, just hit REPLY and you are there.
