| Subject: | Old GN-1 old drawings |
Hello everyone,
I am new to the list as well as building. Recently I purchased GN-1
drawings that were thought to be complete. After their arrival, I found
that pages 15 and 16 were missing. These contain one half of the full size
wing rib pattern. A fellow subscriber to the list has helped with page 15,
but he could not come up with page 16. I would like to complete these
drawings with a copy of an original page that includes the trailing edge;
however, a full size wing rib print for a GN-1 of any type for building
would be appreciated. My plans are dated July 20, 1987. The page 15 I
received was not an exact match, but was close enough to work. The good
part so far is that the guy who sold the drawings to me was honest and sent
me back the check and we're working out the price pending on the outcome of
my search. This seems to be the most active Pietenpol forum that I've found
so far and have been enjoying reading the thread.

I would be happy to take care of expenses and many thanks

John,
I have a copy of page 16. It may not be to the same scale or fit with your page
15, since it is likely "a copy of a copy of a...." However, give me your physical
address and I will send you a copy, no charge. This is because the Gregas
no longer sell the stuff.
You can tape them together and smoothe the curves to fit. More importantly, you
can see whatever Grega was doing differently about spar distances and such.
I can tell you in general, regarding shape-- that the nose and upper front part
of the airfoil(p.14)are the parts markedly different from BP's airfoil. The
lower side of the wing is virtually the same as BP's, too, with the reverse camber
and all that.

Geeeze this pic has got to go through.It's the smallest I can make it.
I've tried five times now to get this to you.
Payment is one beer when I see you on the circuit in your GN-1 Aircamper.
