| Subject: | The Pietenpol is a Chick Magnet! |
Fellow Pieters,
I had my first "Pietenpol as a Chick Magnet" experience yesterday. First of all,
I'm happily married, 44, have 3 kids and am NOT looking to pick up women,
but yesterday........
I had taxi'ed to the north end of the field, where there is a BBQ place next door
with a deck that provides a nice view of the runway. I'm on the far side of
the field, about 200' from the deck. Didn't notice anyone out there when I passed
by. Stopped to do the runup/mag checks/ etc, and suddenly there's a hand
on my shoulder and a voice yelling in my ear "Take me up! Take me up!". Really
took me by surprise, as I always look around before doing the runup to make
sure nobody has taxi'ed up behind me. Pulled the throttle back to idle, and
tried to explain to the attractive-lady-about-my-age-or-younger that I had 96
lbs fuel onboard and we would be over gross weight, not to mention that the
front cockpit headset was back home in the hanger and a step-stool is needed
to get in. She replied "We don't have to talk!" "Take me up!". Once again I tried
to explain weight & balance to someone with no idea what I was talking about,
but I did promise to do it some other time with
less f
uel, a headset, preflight briefing, etc. Never saw this person before in my life.
My biggest fear was my wife, who was shopping, was due back about the time I planned
to return to the field. Not sure if she'd believe this story if I was telling
her after she had seen me helping an attractive lady de-plane from the
front 'pit with much assistance :-)
Never had a car that attracted women, and the old BMW motorcycle is decidely un-cool
to most, but the Piet is a definite Chick Magnet!

Ken,
This may be a stretch, but it might also be worth a shot.
I found a post in the archives where someone included a quote from Dan Wilson in
Austin, MN....
A little more poking around on the net reveals that the fire chief in Austin, MN
is also named Dan Wilson....
There is also a Dan Wilson from Minnesota pictured in a couple of photos from William
Wynne's past Corvair Colleges, unfortunately no photo on the Austin city
fire dept page to compare that with probably the same....
Finally, one of the two posts by Dan Wilson in the archive talked about installing
a natural gas heater in his garage, and how important it was to have a CO
detector. He even included a link to a National Fire Protection Association article
on the topic, something that a fireman would be likely to do....
As such, I would say that a short email to his city email address would tell you
if that's the right gentleman. That address is: dwilson@ci.austin.mn.us
Good luck,
Ryan
