Jim Malley is still with us. That's great!! - As with others, your cover shot on Kitplanes was what finally launched me i nto building my Piet. I had built an R/C model in 1976 and always had the d esign tucked away in the back of my mind but when I saw that cover and read the story I was convinced that I could do it, too. - A couple of letters to you and my first trip to Brodhead really lit the fir e and a bag-o-spruce & T-88 from A.S.&S. got me going. I believe that was a lmost 15 yrs. ago. - So, thanks, Jim. You probably won't ever know how many others your picture inspired.

In fact, it's only ten weeks away. Even closer on the calendar (only five weeks away) is "Brodhead of the North" - the Pietenpol Picnic in Brussels, Ontario (Canada). I found the following posting on the web, so it should be okay to share with the rest of the world. This year is the 20th annual Piet picnic, and when I spoke with the host Jim Armstrong last year, he indicated that this would likely be the last one to be held at their rural airstrip. There's a LOT of work to prepare for an event like this, so after 20 consecutive years, it would be hard to argue that they don't deserve a break. Hopefully an alternate venue will be found to continue the tradition. The Brussels gathering is a relaxed, friendly old-time fly-in - sure to please. No better way to spend the Saturday before Father's Day. Brussels is about a two and a half hour drive from Toronto, or about three and a half hours from Detroit or Buffalo. June 20th, Brussels, ON: The 20th annual Pietenpol Picnic. The last one at this idyllic setting. For lovers of Pietenpols, antique, classic and homebuilt aircraft. Located on the airstrip of Jim Armstrong on the north-east corner of Brussels. 10.00 a.m. to dusk. There will be a Fireman's Breakfast on Sunday morning. For more information please contact Brian Kenney at 905-336-5190 or Jim Armstrong at 519 887-6753. Rain date June 21st.

That settles it. Whenever I get mine done (many years from now) I'm going to do all the FAA paperwork stating the make/model as a "Real Original To-The-Plans Ford A Pietenpol Air Camper", no matter how many mods and changes I make and despite the fact it'll have a Corvair. That oughta really get the purists spun up! -M Mike Whaley MerlinFAC@cfl.rr.com ----- Original Message ----- From: "Oscar Zuniga" Sent: Friday, May 15, 2009 8:59 AM Subject: [piet] Pietenpol-List: Piet mods- How much is too much?

I think I'm going to fly 41CC in the EAA 35 poker run tomorrow. My "Claude M Corbett C1 Pietenpol". Which nobody ever calls it. Which doesn't change a thing about the airplane. If Mike Perez can call his airplane a "Perezenpol", could Jim Inter call his an "Interpol"? ;o) Well, I guess that's enough for a Friday.

I looked up your old Taylorcraft N95239 and found out it is on my field here in Sonoma, disassembled and in a guy's hangar. I think you could probably get this one back if you wanted to. We're having the Taylorcraft fly-in here this weekend, so I'll be at the field. I've got half interest in a flying BC-12D here. Small world, isn't it. Darrel PS. I didn't hear anything back about having a West coast Pietenpol gathering here, but the offer's still good. Clubhouse, bathrooms and showers and a kitchen, plus a big screen TV. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Other Matronics Email List Services ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Post A New Message pietenpol-list@matronics.com UN/SUBSCRIBE http://www.matronics.com/subscription List FAQ http://www.matronics.com/FAQ/Pietenpol-List.htm Web Forum Interface To Lists http://forums.matronics.com Matronics List Wiki http://wiki.matronics.com Full Archive Search Engine http://www.matronics.com/search 7-Day List Browse http://www.matronics.com/browse/pietenpol-list Browse Digests http://www.matronics.com/digest/pietenpol-list Browse Other Lists http://www.matronics.com/browse Live Online Chat! http://www.matronics.com/chat Archive Downloading http://www.matronics.com/archives Photo Share http://www.matronics.com/photoshare Other Email Lists http://www.matronics.com/emaillists Contributions http://www.matronics.com/contribution ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- These Email List Services are sponsored solely by Matronics and through the generous Contributions of its members.
