It sure ain't a Pietenpol - but it is pretty cool just the same. (if you've got an extra $140K that you don't know what to do with). http://www.iconaircraft.com/ Bill C. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 07:39:20 AM PST US From: "TOM STINEMETZE" Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Totally unrelated to Piets - but a cool new plane Bill and fellow Pietsters: Just a bit o' background on that Icon creation. Several of the major design guys who worked at Scaled Composites on the SpaceShipOne project and/or the Virgin Atlantic Global Flyer have since left Scaled to form their own company - Icon Aircraft. I believe they just might know what they're doing.

Think they may have gotten the idea for that one from the Piet Flying and Glider Manual article? Beautiful aircraft.

I wonder how much those go for?

It's a 1965 movie about an international air race set in the 1900's pretty good comedy but great old plane footage. Wonderful stuff! My copy came from Amazon. They probably have more. WELL worth buying.
