We're still trying to figure out how the rock got there. The runway
crowns on along the centerline, yet that's where this rock was.

I've been lurking for a while now, but decided that i would finally say Hello
to everybody!
I was looking at building a Double Eagle, but, have decided to go with a Piet!
I really like the simplicity as well as the history and nostalgia that go along
with this plane.
I have my plans and am about to order the wood to build the ribs.
Even though i'm just starting out, i have found this list to be very inspirational-
Thank You!!

Hello,
I've been lurking for a couple of years, reading the recommended literature, and
ogling the pictures on the net. I finally bought the plans yesterday. Checked
the mail today, just to practice. It's going to be corvair powered.
I figured that I'll never have enough money or time anyways, so why not get started.

Its been an interesting week. During my travels I got the pleasure of meeting and
dinner with Douwe and his lovely family, a real treat for a weary traveler.
I also had the unfortunate opportunity to see his damaged Piet a real beauty. We
worked a bit on her to remove the engine while looking for any additional damage
along the way. I had a nice time with them enjoying their fellowship and
hospitality, great folks.
I regret not being able to spend more time with them or helping rebuild her. With
great spirit and determination she will fly again soon.
Thanks for the welcome and chance to lend a small hand in your piet recovery.

| Subject: | Photos at Waupun last year |
Hello guys, did any one get some photos last year at Waupun, or any air ro air
shots while in formation enroute to OSH? I have a few at Waupun with the 2nd
group of piets, but did not think ahead, or remember to take any pics in formation.
If my computer ever starts working correctly I will try to post the pics
I have from Waupun, that field as a background, with airplanes parked by the
corn looks very nostalgic. I have some of Mr.Perkins fueling up his plane, a
shot down the line of piets, and some with an 50's Ford pickup with Dicks Rotec
piet, 3/4 view. God willing we can try to do it all again in 2019 for the
90th (when we all will need tcas, xponder, radar, gpws, a flight management system
and a 300 year background check to land at a public airport).

| Subject: | too windy to fly so I'll fix |
Well it's been lousy flying weather the past couple days so at least I am not missing
out on that. Still making progress (slowly) on the annual, repairs on
the piet. Too cold to paint today so I did about 30 min of wet sanding and obsessing
over the wing patches. Dad brought over the new bungees so we can get
those replaced. Just 6-7 more coats of paint on the fabric repairs with a bunch
of wetsanding every 2 coats or so, a test run of the engine to check for leaks,
and put the lower tail brace wire fitting back on ($$$$POR-15 paint, didn't
adheare well) after a couple coats of spray bomb, and then see if I can still
fly a pietenpol. By the way, did any of you make it to Grimes Field to see
the B-25's? I went over on thurs. and only 5 of the 20 expected had made it
by then. The Doolittle Radier's Reunion was sceduled to be at Wright Patterson
Airforce Base today, hope it went well.

| Subject: | Phase 1 complete!, Sun-N-Fun update |
The winds in Florida finally settled down today and I was able to fly
off the last 1.5 hours of my Phase 1 period. Finished up by doing the
worst landing so far, but nobody saw it but me. Sun-n-fun was fun, but
windy. Got to see two of the Big Piets, and Jack Phillips got in right
before the air show on Friday afternoon. Unfortunately the two Big
Piets left Friday morning so he missed them. The woodworking shop was
doing a great job with Douwe's wing, with real quality work.
Looking forward to strapping my wife in the front seat for my first
flight with a passenger in over 18 years. She's never flown in an open
cockpit, but has done lots of motorcycle trips.

Jeff,
That is a cool video. Glad you didn't have any more damage. Just wondered why
you happened to have the camera there to catch it.
It is interesting to watch the action of the tail wheel. I am building something
similar for my GN-1 and this gives me some idea of what kind of stress it goes
through. I might give some thought to my wheel attachment.
Thanks for sharing.
