Barry,
It was great to meet you and Mike and your wives. Dianne is
jealous...she couldn't go this year. She is definitely going next year!
Do you guys think you will make it next year? Hope so...maybe we can
camp together.
When I got home and unloaded the car, guess what fell out of the
car...my camera. I had unloaded the car and went through everything at
Oshkosh and couldn't find it. I even unpacked all the bags...freaky!
Anyway, I have all the pictures I took at Brodhead, but didn't take any
at Oshkosh. That camera is going to bug me for a while.
I think I am going to try to come down for one of your EAA meetings if
that is convenient. It will probably have to be November since
September and October are special event meetings with our EAA chapter.
Let me know if that would be a problem.
Take Care,
Max

I got back from OSH late Sat night and have been recovering since. At
OSH, I met the supervisor/escort for the kids that restored the Montana
Piet. He asked me to pass along the thanks from all of the kids for
your support. Your donations were used to treat the kids to a trip to
OSH.
The kids were all given the royal treatment there. While I spoke with
him, they were on a ride in the Ford Tri motor. They had all spoke at a
Forum set up by Doc Mosher, had a chance to meet Chuck Yeager and a
private breakfast with Paul Poberenzy at his home. I know there is much
more to come on this. I was told there was a constant stream of
reporters following them. They all stopped by my plane but I wasn't
there at the time, so I missed out.
You all did a good thing

I've made a deal on a project in New Mexico. Now I need to get it to the
big town of Midland Ontario. I thought perhaps I could ride my motorcycle
and bring them both back in a Uhaul but a Piet is is quit long. (200 inches
including mount by the plans) and would require a huge truck. Any clever
ideas? Does any one know what a container might cost?

the August issue but I don't get the magazine. It is supposed to be in the
"what our members are building/restoring/flying" section. Not "Sport

If someone has it and can verify, I'd like to see the article as finally

Bob,
If you have access to a car or pickup, a 16-foot trailer works quite well. Around
here the trailers rent for $25 a day. I use my own 16' trailer which I have
owned for over 20 years. The 16-foot dimension is for the bed alone, so you
can overhang a Piet a bit on both ends as needed. Take the empennage off before
towing, and put lots of plastic all over everything. Tie down with heavy
rope or nylon cinch binders. Watch out for sharp edges and effects of wind.
It worked for me.

What Walt says is right. To see the physical relationship between the Piet
horizontal stabilizer and a typical trailer, take a look at this picture
which shows how wide it is:
http://www.flysquirrel.net/piets/incident/PC310003.JPG
Other than that consideration, an open trailer is a great way to move your
project. For more inspiration along these lines, take a look at how Corky
moved his Aeronca the same way... in the snow. Here's the link to the pix:

Why not just drive down in a car and purchase a $250 trailer from Harbor
Freight or Tractor Supply? You would overhang a couple of feet in front of
the trailer and maybe 6 in back. Here in NY a registration would be $10.

Don't remember the exact sizes, but equal to lots of UHAULS.
I can get the truck dimentions, if you'd like.

Why not just drive down in a car and purchase a $250 trailer from
Harbor Freight or Tractor Supply? You would overhang a couple of feet
in front of the trailer and maybe 6 in back. Here in NY a registration
would be $10.

cost?

Most states will allow you to register a vehicle bought in the state. I
was just giving an example of how cheap trailer registrations are. Nothing
else is cheap here in the tax capital of the US. We are usually number 1
or 2 on total tax load. And the state govt wonders why business is leaving....
If he called ahead Bob could probably get a serial number and do the whole
registration in Ontario and take the tags with him. My real point is that
it may be cheaper to get a throwaway trailer there than to rent a U
Haul. You could even get some of the cash back by selling it after the
advenrure.

My cousin used to fly an airline from NYC to the Texas Panhandle in early December,
visit the family, buy a solid old pickup and a old horse trailer (some are
quite long) and fill the thing with the biggest tumbleweeds he could find and
drive back to NYC. At NYC he would spraypaint the tumbleweeds silver and sell
them as "Texas Christmas Trees." Then he would sell the truck and trailer. He
covered the cost of his trip and made some money.

Thanks to some great helpers at Brodhead, we assembled my Piet out of
the trailer, in just over an hour, including the tail. My tail was also
too wide to go in. I built a carpeted pallet to hold it. I padded the
walls and stood wings up, leading edge down.
Make sure there are plenty of places to tie off to.
Maybe Skip Gadd can weigh in on trailing across country with a flat bed
trailer, he did that last year.

a plane
Though I only moved it about 160 miles.
That there is a Flaconar F-12. the wing is 28 ft long tip to tip.
16 foot flat center section.

Subject: | Axel on Wood Gear Question |
Question for people with the wood gear strait axel. What goes on the inner
side to hold the wheel in place? I have pictures of the outer end of the
axel but non of the inside. I am planning on using brakes like Mike Cuy or
perhaps a drum.
Anyone have pictures of their axel without the wheels on it?
