I haven't been on the list much, but still have the project. Actually, I have two project Piets now. I haven't been doing much as I had a job change from the school where I was teaching. I'm now a pastor at my church on an interim basis (next year or two). The Mounds View district (as well as others) have been cutting Industrial Tech classes left and right. My position was cut after last school year. So, all my planes and parts are at my house. 2 fuselages, 4 wings, 5.5 Corvair engines, and all the extras that go into making a plane. My wife is lovely and gracious. My building urge is growing again so I'll get back to it a little bit in the next few months. Great seeing your aircraft in Sport Aviation - looks beautiful!!! Maybe I'll do my second one ply covered. Would you do it again that way? You can periodically check out progress at my Blog (www.aircamperman.wordpress.com) Are your planes still out at MIC? I have a friend rebuilding a Bellanca Cruisemaster out there and can maybe connect with you some time.

I am impressed with the 125hp Franklin PZL engines.. saw they were for sale NEW for about 7K, in the crate. Thought about a corvair for my GN-1 biplane if the ENMA Tigre doesn't work out.. now that is plan "C", plan B is the 125hp Franklin.

You may catch a bit of Mike Cuys Piet video running on the shop TV. Someone always has Piet plans and we will all help with questions. This years project is the construction of a set of wood wings at the show. They are very similar to the Piet. I ould also like to talk to anyone who would like to build a project at next years show. We have done several Aircamper fuselages in the past and would welcome another if someone would like. We welcome new volunteers to the shop also. It's a great way to be more invoved and get more out of the airshow.
