Subject: | Fuel tank near electrical |
Rick,
I have a small header tank in front of my forward instrument panel. The
coils and switcher unit are mounted in the gap between the header tank and
the firewall.
Cheers

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Fuel tank near electrical
Is it a problem placing higher voltage electrical components near a fuel
tank? In this case two ignition coils and a switcher unit for my Corvair
placed on the shelf ahead of the forward instrument panel. Don't know where
else I would put them except on the firewall.
Thanks
Rick

Subject: | inter-rib lacing tape or this ? |
For those who have completed fabric covering and taughtening on wings:
How many of you installed some sort of inter-rib lacing tape or
mechanical
(as I did with strips of cap strip material) method to keep your ribs
from moving under the forces of heat-shrinking your
dacron fabric ?
For those who did not use the age-old inter-rib lacing or what I did,
did your wing ribs stay put or did they move around some after fabric
taughtening ?
Thank you,

inter-rib lacing tape or this ?I used the inter-rib lacing per the
Polyfiber covering manual. I didn't see any indication of rib movement.

inter-rib lacing tape or this ?Michael, I did the same as you with no
problem taughtening and covering. Just don't forget the braces on the
butt rib. I did, and I had to go in and add strips top and bottom for
two spaces between the aft spar and the trailing edge. I am covered and
primed now but the inside of the wing doesn't look near as nice as
yours since I painted everything with grey epoxy primer. That is what I
had in stock. Cheers, Gardiner Mason

Dick,
I am in Colusa, California (O08), just 60 miles north of Sacramento on
I5. Where is the closest Peitenpol builder?
Thanks,

Michael,
This is Ray Krause, a newbie to this site. I am just starting on my
Pietenpol and would appreciate seeing your pictures, also. My e-mail is
RayKrause@frontiernet.net.
I recently completed a Sonex Waiex plane. Beautiful and fast. The
Pietenpol will replace my J-3 for slow and low flying. I just need to
be building something!
Thanks,
Ray Krause

I just happened to run across this. For those that don't know, Popular
Science archives have been made available on Google. 1870/1910 through early
this year. Pretty darn cool....
