Normally stay out of controled airspace. Talked with Randy Bush last
night and if all works out, I will fly down to Randy's field (close to
MKL) and the two of us will meet you for coffee.

Doubtful. I'll refuel it with the FBO in Jackson, since they've kept
it in their hangar for the last 3 weeks. Possible I might go on Tuesday
and wait until Thursday to leave, so if I do that I might be able to
stop in for a visit. I'd like to see your Pietenpol. Do you ever fly
into MKL?

Hello Fred,
West System is good stuff (I use it often on my wooden boat). Just fyi, one issue
which was brought to my attention and well worth understanding is Amine Blush,
which is a waxy by product which occurs on the surface as the epoxy cures.
West System is one of these epoxies, and in wooden boat circles, a common phenomenon
we live with, but take precautions. Whenever attaching epoxy to epoxy,
it should be cleaned off and then rough sanded first, otherwise adhesion may
be compromised. A quick search on the internet will provide all the info anyone
needs (if you are not already familiar). Nothing to get excited about, just
something to be aware of. Its one reason I went with System 3, it does not produce
Amine Blush by-product upon curing. Both good epoxies (IMHO), just fyi.
Keep up the building!
Steve

>From the diary of Orville Wright:
Saturday, October 31st, 1903
Kitty Hawk, N.C.
Trussed skids under machine and began work on frame for tail. Wind light
Sunday, November 1st, 1903
Will and Spratt made trip to woods. Birds have mostly left. Mr. Daniels of
Life Savers Service visited us and brought letters from O. Chanute and Ka
te. Mr. Chanute is to leave today for Washington, where he expects to meet
Mr. Alexander. Wind light.
(Note: The Wrights never "worked" on Sundays. This includes working on the
ir machine or flight testing.)
Monday, November 2nd, 1903
Began work of placing engine on machine, also uprights for screws. Telegra
phed Mr. Chanute telling him that he and Mr. Alexander would be welcome to
visit us after 5th of month. Wind still light. Probably 4 meters.
Wilbur Wright to Octave Chanute (Telegram)
Yourself and Mr. Alexander welcome after November 5th. Bring abundant bedd
ing.

Raka is also a very low Amine if any, however the epoxy to epoxy
joint should be sanded for adhesion, also I would not glue wood to aluminum
with out fasteners like bolts screws or nails, the aluminum will corrode
over the years under the epoxy and result in a weak joint.
my 02 cents worth

| Subject: | Strut tubing sizes |
The gearlegs and spring struts on 41CC had paint on them but it goes pretty fast
on the spring struts where one tube moves inside the other so don't worry about
paint... just keep the clearances tight and grease up the fittings when you
assemble them.
As far as position of the springs or bungees on the struts, I prefer to keep things
up and out of the way because I like flying off of grass and if the springs
or anything else are down low on the gear legs, they pick up grass and dust.
Just my preference, and apparently Corky's too.
PS to Skip- I hope you gave a loud "YEEEHAAAAWWW!" as you flew that new Piet around
the patch! It's great to see that new ones are taking to the air every day
now.
