I understand the mothership will be rolled out in Mojave the Monday that Oshkosh starts, and that Burt will be speaking at Osh on Tuesday night. I've lived on the space coast my whole life and think its amazing that a private company could make the achievements of the X-prize during the Spaceship One project. Spaceship Two takes it to a whole new level. http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=WBo8t0B5NhM Ben Charvet Mims, Fl Counting down the days to Brodhead ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 12:38:51 PM PST US From: "Perry Rhoads" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Roll Call Chet, Any luck with the Piet cooling problem? Have you been able to figure out if you have the long or short fuselage? I have the plans to both, and can provide the measurements if you need them.

From: "Don Emch" Hey Piet Pilots... As we all know the main event of the year for us is happening next week. :D For Ford Model T enthusiasts, next week is also a big week. For a couple of years now the Model T guys have been planning a 100 year anniversary celebration of the Ford Model T. It is going on at the Richmond, Indiana fairgrounds and starts this Sunday and runs the whole week. There has been lots of media attention for it and so far they have over a thousand Model T's registered to attend. The coolest thing about this is that they have picked up on the fact that there were some airplanes that used Ford engines. They have decided to devote one of the days next week to old airplanes and hopefully some Pietenpols. There is a beautiful grass strip a couple of miles from the fairgrounds and Tuesday was chosen to be the day to gather out there. I think the Model T's all plan to drive to the strip. Now I know it is a really last minute kind of thing, but they are asking for any Piets to join them. If there is anyone that will be heading to Brodhead in a Piet and could possibly swing by the airstrip they would really like it. They want to include all pilots in an opening night dinner on Monday night. They promise to treat the pilots with top notch treatment! Andrew King (a Brodhead and Piet fixture, also "Flyboys" pilot) is in charge of the the airplane gathering and he asked me to post this to try to get some last minute Piets there. I know it is last minute, but if you are interested please call me at (330) 429-5265. I really think there will be lots of media there and I think Greg Herrick even threatened to have his Ford Tri-motor there, not sure if that panned out though. Anyway here is the website for the celebration; http://www.tparty2008.com/ Check out the events page for Tuesday and see the Fly-in info. If you think you can go please call me!

If anyone from MPLS area is driving to Brodhead and has some room for Corvair heads, I'd like to ask a delivery favor. I've got 6 or 7 heads I want to get to WW or Mark Petunas down there and if I go, I'll most likely be on a motorcycle. Any help is appreciated.
