    There is a little group of cross-section drawings labeled with these dimensions and the shape after rounding/rabbet cutting on the right middle of location of the empennage page. The leading edge of the vertical stabilizer is 1"x3/4" The back of the vertical stabilizer is 1'x1". The bottom vertical stabilizer tapers from 1"x1" to 1"x3/4" The front of the rudder (hinged main spar) is 1" x 1" The trailing edge of the rudder is 1 1/4" x 5/8" (I made mine 1 3/8" vs. 1 1/4" to have more wood for shaping.) The sides taper from 1" x 1" to 1" x 5/8". -------- Glenn Thomas N????? http://www.flyingwood.com Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=233847#233847

    Thanks Glenn, very helpful! I thought the small drawings only related to the horizontal stab and elevators.

    It's one of those areas that isn't crystal clear but since they are not given specifically, those are the dimensions I went with.

    Subject: 80th Anniversary fly-in
    I've flown to OSH twice and both times it was in mass formation. First time in the Pietenpol, and then last year in the Stinson. I've never flown the Fiske arrival... Strange but true. In '99 we staged at Hartford, and last year we staged the Stinson flyin at Watertown. With the exception of having Frozen Custard within walking distance at Waterford, Hartford would be my choice again for the piet, if I were to fly it again. Even at only 14 or 15 miles away, it is a difficult thing to get an entire cloud of piet s together in some sort of order at the landing end of the journey. It is a good idea to go in groups of 4-5 ships, although I'll never forget being in a gaggle of airplanes going the same general direction. I thought I was in a WW1 fighter squadron! In '99 we had one landing mishap that closed t he airport. Crosswinds blew wake turbulence from a landing DC3 on the par allel runway and slammed a piet into the ground, causing a gear collapse an d prop strike. No injuries, but sorrowful end for one fellow pietenpoller. It could have been avoided if we had more separation smaller groups wou ld have helped. Hartford is a great airport with a grass runway, close to hotels too. Steve E.

Oshkosh is only 4 1/2 months away and here is how things are shaping up for this years 80th anniversary: Brodhead is being scheduled and promoted as Thursday through Saturday, July 23 - 25. On Sunday, July 26th we depart Brodhead and fly to an airport close to Oshk osh to make arrival arrangements with OSH tower. Juneau, WI (UNU) is lookin g like a strong possibility because it is close and it is a straight flight up highway 26 to Oshkosh. Small groups of 4 - 5 planes, with a radio equipped flight leader, will dep art UNU for Oshkosh via the Fisk arrival route. Tailskid equipped Pietenpols will use the ultralight arrival procedure. The 2009 Oshkosh NOTAM will be available in April or May. A link will be po sted when it becomes available. Some questions for everyone: 1. Who is planning to fly their Piet to Oshkosh? 2. Who is radio equipped and willing to act as a group leader on the flight to OSH? 3. Who is planning to drive from Brodhead to OSH and would be willing to ha ul camping gear and baggage? If you know someone with a Pietenpol who isn't on this list please encourag e them to consider attending. Don Emch - can you contact Frank Pavliga to see if he is willing to attend? John Hoffman or Roman Bukolt - you guys live in the area, what can you tell us about the Juneau airport? Most importantly, is the grass adjacent to th e runways suitable for landing during the summer months? This should be enough to get the conversations started.

    Just finished 633 squadron. I enjoyed it. However, I find it interesting that the Mosquito must have had the aelerons attached so that they worked opposite of any plane I have been in. If the pilot input a right roll then the plane rolled left. and vice versa. The only time they seemed to respond correctly was when a navigator pulled the dead pilot off of the yoke and rolled the plane into the target! It also did it when a pilot of a mosquito on fire rolled into the target. Also I had no Idea that the ME 108 Taifun (a four seat liaison plane related to the ME 109 fighter) was fast enough to catch a Mosquito and could maneuver like a fighter.
