To make them tight just adds load to the compression struts. When just long enough they add no load on the compression strut. When load is added fore or aft, the load moves thru the stay to the next compression strut. The compression strut would be more likely to crush if it is already pre-loaded . The wing cannot bow if as soon as it starts to load the wires go tight. That's assuming the wires don't stretch.

That's why they are often referred to as "drag/anti- drag" wires. There are ways around using them, but they're simple, effective, light weight and more importantly, traditional.

I called the Aeronca guru, Bill Pancake. He said he talked to Aeronca factory workers years ago about this because he could find no literature on it. They told him to go by the "rule of thumb". The "rule of thumb" according to them is to put your thumb between the wires where they cross and use the other hand to tight them until it just starts to hurt, then go no more. It's funny because there is a point where you just all of the sudden start to feel a slight pain. It really doesn't need much. If you put too much load on them all it does is put a huge amount of compression load on both the compression struts and spars for no real reason. All they do is keep things square. No need to put much pre-load on them.

I struggled with the same thing when I was building my wings. I finally came to the conclusion that it is not rocket science. The drag/anti-drag wires just need to be snug. Over tightening them puts undue strain on the wing and adds nothing to the structural integrity. Again, on my wings I tightened the turnbuckles as tight as I could by finger pressure alone. Then I went one more turn. This gave me a tension of 35-40#.

It started out with a good article about fellow EAA Director Susan Dusenbury and her Stinson project. As I made my way through the magazine, I was pleased to see your smiling face and a great multi-page article on you and your Pietenpol. Jack and Golda do a great job with this pub;ication and your article was no exception. I had heard the story of your off airport landing, but never did know the cause until now. We are all glad you took the time to fix it back and lead the Pietenpol charge. Got about 4" of snow last night (the most we have had in 8 or 9 years) and I love it.

My name is Rodrigo Oliveira and I'm from Minas Gerais - Brazil. Together with my father, Jose, I'm about to start a Piet project. Plans already here. I've been following the list for a while now, quite anxious for an opportunity to contribute, but soon I realized that none of my skills available at the moment were of use, specially because I haven't started yet. But than, here and there, messages mentioning Sun n Fun are popping , and it got me all happy cos I'm actually making it up there this year. The show itself would be a dream come true already, but since me and my Dad have this project now, it's going to be just amazing to meet some of you guys there, and maybe see a real Piet "live". Dad is coming with me, but he speaks no english at all, so patience will be welcome :) Anyway, just wanted to say hi and come out of the shadows.

You & your Dad will have a great time building a Piet! Here's some free advice, though: First thing to do is go to Netflix.com and rent a copy of, "The Great Waldo Pepper." That way you will be able to communicate with all the fellow Pietenpol builders and flyers that you meet along the way... Seriously, this is a great group and you are at the right place to learn all you need. Once you get started you may even get a visit from The Great Jim Markle! Gary Boothe Cool, Ca.

My name is Rodrigo Oliveira and I'm from Minas Gerais - Brazil. Together with my father, Jose, I'm about to start a Piet project. Plans already here. I've been following the list for a while now, quite anxious for an opportunity to contribute, but soon I realized that none of my skills available at the moment were of use, specially because I haven't started yet. But than, here and there, messages mentioning Sun n Fun are popping , and it got me all happy cos I'm actually making it up there this year. The show itself would be a dream come true already, but since me and my Dad have this project now, it's going to be just amazing to meet some of you guys there, and maybe see a real Piet "live". Dad is coming with me, but he speaks no english at all, so patience will be welcome :) Anyway, just wanted to say hi and come out of the shadows. Cheers from the south, Rodrigo Piet plans purchased Sun N Fun, almost there! ------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- 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.
