| Subject: | article is not about 80th Anniversary |
The article will appear in March/April issue of Smithsonian Air & Space and
I contributed to the
author and it is my understanding that this is NOT about the 80th gathering
at all but merely a great
overview of the Pietenpol with photos.
With that said, if anyone has high resolution photos of nose-on, I mean dea
d NOSE on views of
Pietenpols please send them to me by Monday morning. Likewise if you have
any aerial photos of the
Pietenpol gathering at Brodhead that show a good number of planes on the gr
ound, those would
also be appreciated.

=0ATo: pietenpol-list@matronics.com=0A=0A=0AThe edges around engine have no
seam or wire. We simpley cut with no finish except buffing with scotchbrig

e used 2023t3 .020 Alum. for the cowling. We did bead the edages where the
cowling laps and where it meets the plane. Pictures work better I will see
if I can find some and post. Oh thanks for the looks comments on the Big Pe

=0AI agree the engine looks great Barry.- Do you have any cowling pics of
your plane?- I'd like to see some pics of how you did the cowling with t
he corvair and scoops.- My plan has always been to remote mount the oil c
ooler (maybe under the engine) and thus I've made some cooling scoops alrea
dy like you with the wired edge and all. (you're right it's not that hard t
o do-but it is easier with the right tools.)=0A=0AA big thank you to everyo
ne who has responded to my call for assistance.- If anyone comes up with
other pics or ideas or remote mounted oil coolers or corvair cowls with the
scoops, send them my way.- =0A=0AThanks=0A=0AMike Groah=0ATulare CA=0A(g

Douwe,
I mounted mine inside the center section on a hinged bracket so it can
fold up out of the way.
