Mark,
Anytime you are proud of your work, and need to stand back and look, it's
a milestone. Very nice work. It must be great to get it out into the ligh
t.
Keep plugging!

I'm not sure if this is actually a milestone, but I'm feeling pretty good
about
t. I took my left wing panel off the jig today and trial fit the aileron.
oday was one of the first really nice days we have had in a long time, so
I
ook my wing panel outside and set it on saw horses so I could look it over
in

ulleys and LE sheeting, but the framework is complete.
We measured the dimensions (front to rear spar - tip to root) and found th

Hi - I haven't been able to get ahold of the (sainted) west coast piet
webmaster to post construction photos of NX899KP. The Girl taught me how to
post photos on a google blog. Here's the link:

I'll continue to add pictures as I can. If I have any notes I put them as

Mark,
Thanks for the pix. It all looks great.
If you have them, I would like some more details, please. I'd like to see pix--
both a side view and a top view of the wing tip bow and the curved aileron tip,
and how they line up and look together. Perhaps your build is not quite there
yet-- the tips.
In any event, I continue to have trouble visualizing exactly how that goes together.
I should have taken a stepladder and a closeup lens to Brodhead in 2006
or 2008.
Thanks, Tim in central TX

Thanks for the nice comments fellas. For those that want to see most of my build
photos... you can go to my logbook site (posted below in my signature). I've
tried to keep it current and relevant to the project, but there are a few "shop"
entries that pertain to equipment and such.
For those that may not be familiar with mykitlog.com, just click on the link below
and when you get to my main page click the ALL link on the right side menu.
That will display all of my entries since I've started my project and you can
quickly browse for titles and which ones have photos. I do have larger photos
available for anyone that is interested in specific details. Perhaps Chris
would let me post some of my photos on West Coast Piet? Maybe I'll shoot him
a note tonight.
Gary, I got the idea for the vertical wing jig from Tony Bingelis' "Sportplane
Construction Techniques" (pg. 57). It was super easy to build, and if you have
a solid work bench to clamp them to (see my photo above), you won't have to
anchor them to the ceiling. I used a water level and shims to get mine leveled
up and it is working great. Even if space isn't an issue, I think the vertical
configuration allows better access to the entire wing panel. I could be wrong...
won't know until I try the other methods.
Time to make sawdust!

Hi Gang,
For anyone interested, there is an antique 4-1/4" "Height" gauge currently
on Ebay. Item # 270538280371. Price is currently $212.00. Not too bad so
far. I paid a lot more for mine.

I am flying my hours off and after 5 hours I am really impressed on how my ship
handles. It really likes 85 mph at 2500rpm. and will easily go to 95 RPM at
2900 rpm. On final approach to landing I am trying to get used the sink rate
for landing. I like to land power off like I was taught., but i FIND THAT IS
NOT POSSIBLE. I have been reading about dimple tape as a somewhat solution. Have
any of you experienced pietenpollers tried this and does it work? Thanks

I too am flying off my hours. Today was my first test of the $3
elevator trim system I installed yesterday. Prior to this I was holding
a lot of back pressure for level flight. I also added 1/2 inch of
offset to the rudder. Now I can fly hands off for a few seconds while
fumbling around changing frequencies, etc. Today was pancake EAA
pancake breakfast day for my chapter. When it came time to land the
wind was blowing 8 kts right down the paved runway. I basically flew it
right down to the pavement at 65 mph and about 1000 rpm. In spite of
the large audience by carrying a little power I was able to do a nice
wheel landing that was heard more than felt, pulled the throttle, pushed
the stick forward, and still only rolled out about 150 ft. My flight
advisor suggested wheel landings, and I think they are best done with a
little power on.
Only 19 hours to go!

I got mine from Aircraft Spruce. Aside from one minor, and one not so minor problem,
the material is great. For the record (for those that weren't reading
the mail a few months ago), Aircraft Spruce quickly took care of both issues.

William,
Those who have been on this list for a while know that I would be remiss if
I did not point out that you are not locked in to using A/C Spruce. I have
Hemlock in my tail, and the rest is Poplar, including the ribs. All was
bought at a local hardwood supplier for under $300.

The Pietenpol coverall graphic is very appealing to me. I love the "pulled from
an angel" look of the wings and the "circus" look of the script. I'd like to
hear more from others.
Do I understand that a fellow could iron this on his plane in one version, and
on his coveralls in another, adjusting for size? Are these to be vinyl or what?
Thanks,

Ben,
I'm waiting with baited breath, to hear the flying data on the 612 wings that are
in the works. The glide is not anyway near the glide you are experiencing ,
nor the sink rate as fast.

It is possible that you could have these made into a heat transfer, these are possible
silkscreenings for the coveralls that have been discussed here.
With some research I could silk screen this onto a fabric swatch that could be
affixed to your finished craft.
I will be posting other comps as I complete them.

If you down a ways on this page you will see a chart
of wood strength and weight;

The longerons and wing rib caps are carefully chosen
trim material from lumber yards. I was extremely
picky so I made regular rounds to five yards. The
spar material is very unusual and only comes in 5"
and 6" widths. I found it in a higher end place that
carries better materials usually.
The longerons are 1 1/16" square stuff that is used as
a backing when building up fancy, complicated
moldings.
