    Short answer: dumb luck. Long story: I had been meaning to film with a camera pointing forward and rearward for some time. We had a particularly pretty sunset that evening, so I attached both cameras. The YouTube video is only 2 mins from a 40 min taping, and of course, none from the forward facing camera. ><coxwelljon@frontiernet.net> > >Jeff, > >That is a cool video.

    From: "John Recine" <amsafetyc@aol.com>
    Had a good day yesterday, almost like Christmas. Got my grand son packed up for a road trip to Bloomsberg pa. I have been wanting to take that ride for some time now. Columbia aviation FAA service station, got a chance to pick up all my genuine inspected yellow tagged ready to be assembled lycoming 0235 C1B 108 hp engine parts. I can't wait to start the building process on that bad boy. Everything clean shiny painted and looking brand new. So is the life of a "batch builder" another my phrase. I save up a batch of money buy a batch of material and parts and build till the batch gets used up then I do it all over again. Just spent a batch O bucks so its back to saving and building. Not unless I get a chance to do a bit O Marlkin along the way. Yup did some of that last week while traveling last week. John Sent from my Verizon Wireless BlackBerry

Basically it would be built like the a 3rd aileron just shorter in length, about 24 inches long. Speaking of length, should it exstend beyond the center section lendth?

    Shad, I could just wander into the living room and look in the Bingelis books, but what's the fun in that? Fabric patching sounds like one of those magical arts that is best acquired by watching, then doing, under the tutelage of an expert. Lacking said expert, do you recommend a good book or article that outlines the procedure to get a high quality, can't-tell-if-no-one-told-me-it-was-there result? I'll be starting with the dread Sherwin Williams paint which I understand is easily removed with either some strong duct tape or MEK...

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.

    In light of the recent mishap w/ Douwe's Piet, how well would the pilot fair in a noseover with the flop in place? Would it hinder egress during an emergency if the airplane were on it's back? I'm also thinking of the RV that flipped at Brodhead this past summer. That large canopy wouldn't open while the airplane was on it's back if I recall.

    Subject: Re: Wing flop
    From: "skellytown flyer" <skellflyer1@yahoo.com>
    i am about to figure out how to make mine work now.I have my wings rigged and am getting ready to make up the X-brace cables.-I kinda wonder why they are necessary with the X-brace rods in the wings to control drag. but anyway I'll use them since the plans call for them and they can carry part of the flight loads along with the struts. but my wing flop section is the same width as the center section. so that leaves about 2" gap on each side to hide.I'm guessing I'll end up making a gap cover to come back the the rear spar and then something separate that will be attached to the flop to close the gap but let it swing up with it.Raymond Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=294734#294734

    Subject: Re: too windy to fly so I'll fix
    I seem to be the guy that has to learn the hard way, by doing. Learn from my failures, and triumphs. Taking off the paint is easy with the latex, soak a rag in mek, hold it on the paint to let it penetrate, then lightly scrape the paint away, it peels off fairly clean. I use a plastic scraper. The tougher, or more labor intensive part is blending the paint in. We used Cecobond cement, which is waterbased. Dad did not use the complete cecobond paint system, just the fabric cement. Glue the patch on as per your fabric system instructions. Next I brush 2-3 coats of the latex base "primer" color which is white on ours, and let dry 24 hrs or so. Then wetsand untill smooth, and the outter area of the primer is almost gone, thus leaving the low spot where you removed the paint, filled in. I think 3-4 coats of base color should fill the low spots, and hopefully 2-3 sessions of wetsanding is all that will be required to look decent. Then I plan on 3-4 brush coats of orange to match the rest of the wing. Hopefully the orange will match, it's been out in the hanger all winter freeze and thaw, but it mixed up well last week. That's about it, I think this patch will be my best one yet (out of neccesity, it's going to be in a visible area). One recomendation I have is make a frame out of 2x4 etc and cover it exsactly like your airplane, then you can practice on it. also when you go flying throw it out in the sun, and put in back in the hanger when your done. This will give you a fairly accurate fabric deterioratin (spelling) test sample if your wondering how its holding up. OH YEA, don't forget to use some Flotrol in your latex, it helps the paint flow out a little smoother, directions on the bottle. Shad

    John, what mags are on your 235 c1b. I am using the same on my Jungster, but with out starter or electrical system. I believe they originally had s-400 series mags which had the "shower of sparks" ignition retard for start. They use a starter vibrator (transformer) unit instead of a impulse coupling. Do you plan on having electric, or starter? I would be interested in how your set up works either way. Shad

I am using the same on my Jungster, but with out starter or electrical system. I believe they originally had s-400 series mags which had the "shower of sparks" ignition retard for start. They use a starter vibrator (transformer) unit instead of a impulse coupling. Do you plan on having electric, or starter? I would be interested in how your set up works either way. Shad

    Subject: Re: Wing flop
    For what it's worth, here's my flop. The trapzoidal areas will be covered with lexan, top and bottom. Much more visibility in a turn. The dragwires inside the wing keep the wing panels themselves square. The strut X bracing keep the entire wing from twisting back and forth as a unit. Suppose you had a situation where there was more drag on the right wing and less on the left. This would try to push the right wingtip back towards the tail and move the left foreward thus twisting the wing about the center. The X bracing works to keep that under control, among other things.

    I made my flop about a quarter inch narrower than the full opening width between the left and right wings of my 3 piece wing (see attached).

    Tim / Jim, Thanks! The wood work is a tribute to my father, who enjoyed working with exotic woods. I found this stuff amongst his collection and know one to be Orange Paducah.
