Will take you to a very quickly posted gallery of about 237 photos I
took at Brodhead today. These are mostly unedited, raw pics, but you
should find womething fun anyway. if you see something you really need
a high resolution copy of just email me.
I also attended Willikam Wynn's Corvair motor seminar, which I recorded
and have as an mp3 uploaded. If you'd like to listen to it, let me know
and I can e-mail you a link to download the audio. it's about a 50 meg
mp3 file.
The wife is pestering me to head for the county fair that's here too,

today! Talk about feminine wiles!

I had several inquiries if I had audio of the Rotec Radial in action at
Brodhead. I did get a couple quick video clips and have uploaded them.
However..you better have high speed access if you want to view them as
they are huge files....dvd quality, stereo sound. I'm off to Oshkosh
this morning, so haven't bothered to compress them for web use, etc.
But if you want to take a shot at them try these:

Wonder ... why it's builder (I know his name but for the life of me I
can't remember it) removed his Air Camper's Model A and replaced it with
an A65 or something similar?
Jim,
Too bad you couldn't make it this year. It was a really good turn-out. I
think I counted 18 "Piets" (Air Campers, Aircampers and Scout). The
nametags were a fantastic idea - I now have faces to match a lot of the
names that keep popping up here on the list. This weekend is such a
motivator to get back to building - it's the high point of my summer.
Since nobody has offered an answer to your question, I'll give it a
shot.
First, my disclaimer. I didn't speak with Dennis Hall, and I didn't get
inside his hangar to see his re-engined Air Camper (hangar door was
closed when I walked past), but I did hear the reason why he's changing
out his powerplant. Okay, now that that's out of the way, here's my
answer.
The story I heard is that he really wants to take passengers up for
rides, and he just felt he could not do that with the "A" he had
installed. I don't know the exact details (power or reliability or ???).
I know Ken Perkins' A-powered Air camper takes passengers up almost
non-stop during the weekend, so we know it's a combination that can work
very well. As well, the 1934-built "A" powered "Allan Rudolph" Air
Camper was also seen taking several passengers aloft (one at a time, of
course).
Of course, like I said, this is second-hand information, so if anyone
out there knows better (or otherwise), chime in.
Bill C.

home yesterday)

Robert,
It was a beautiful Scout Piet which sold by the end of the first day. I believe
the asking price was 15K. Excellent craftsmanship!!

There was a 1989 Kitplanes article about flying the Piet that, as I
recall, mentioned Mark Anderson's dad working on a replica, at
Brodhead, of the Curtis Robin. (I hope I remember the name right.)
Was it ever finished? Anybody have any information about a replica
Robin?
It's got to be done!!

Speaking of scenes from Brodhead...I dropped my camera while I was there.
It is a Canon SD700 (I think...I have to check the box when I get home). It
is in a small case that fits on your belt. If anyone found it, please let
me know...I will be glad to offer a reward to get it back.
Thanks,
