(Steve Ruse) ________________________________ Message 1 _____________________________________ Time: 06:49:27 AM PST US From: Jim Markle Subject: Pietenpol-List: How much better can it get???? Yesterday we drive into town for the first time in forever. As much as I travel, I rarely drive to town (Tulsa). Julia and I and two of my sons (my oldest and youngest) are meeting my uncle at his son's hangar to clean some stuff out of it before they sell his plane. I can tell you seeing a nice plane (this is an older Mooney) sitting without it's pilot/owner is a very sad thing indeed. (My cousin died recently while he and his friend were practicing touch/go's). So this ain't gonna be a happy way to spend an afternoon. We got there before my uncle arrives and are watching planes land in a beautiful, windy partly cloudy sky. A couple T-6's and some other round engine planes landed from the Tulsa Air Show (which I sadly did not get to go to, although I had tickets in my pocket!). Then in the distance we see this yellow "Cub" on left base. He turns to final and I see a "different" looking tail shape and...hey wait...that's no Cub! Looks like an Air Camper tail shape! And I realize this little yellow plane has some writing on the side. Just like Steve Ruse' Air Camper! NO WAY! So I go running over to some guys watching the landing and ask if they have a radio. They say yes, so I ask if I can borrow it to call "that plane that just landed". I find out they just came from a little town about 45 miles from Tulsa where THEY had watched (a couple hours earlier) THAT yellow plane following a steam engine train along it's path (they mention that the plane couldn't quite keep up with the train). They are train and airplane enthusiasts and drove down to see the special event train. They asked if "my friend" didn't know where to meet me and I said he didn't EVEN know I was there! They just looked at me like I was nuts (I've seen the look before.... :- ) Anyway, I run out to the taxiway and wave down the plane (running onto an active runway/taxi way is a WEIRD feeling!)...ran up to the pilot and he looks out and says "JIM???". HA! A VERY surreal moment! (Sorry for dragging this out.....) The wonderful part: What started off being a not so fun afternoon turns into Julia seeing her first actual flying Air Camper, me getting to FINALLY meet Steve face to face (after about 6 years of TRYING to get together)...well, the whole thing was just incredible....we shook hands, hugged, laughed...Steve landing at THAT airport at THAT moment lifted our spirits during a not so happy time. This note probably doesn't capture the magic of what happened yesterday but I can tell you that something special DID happen. I doubt that Steve realizes how important that landing was. I didn't until this morning when we were talking about it. Back during the "Save Markle's Piet" event I said more than once (from my heart) that I'm one of the luckiest people around. And I am that.... And I'm saying it again. ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:50:11 AM PST US From: Jim Markle Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: things about the straight axel Even those big wire wheels with a split axle...like the Brits (and others) do it...

When solid inserts fail (regardless of their material), as they sometimes do, they tend to weld or bond themselves to the threads on the spark plug. Upon plug removal, the failure mode results in torn threads in the head, along with many issues - and expenses - for the mechanic or owner repairing the subsequent damage. Consider the issues involved: teardown, welding, machine work to rethread, and reassembly. OUCH! Not a good thing. In my experience with aircooled engines, I've encountered just this, and it was both costly and time consuming. In the case of a traditional cylinder-head setup found on an aircraft engine, only one jug needs to be removed to correct this type of problem. In contrast the corvair has a three spigot "log" head, requiring the full bank - or at least the head on that bank - to be removed and repaired. FWIW, I've repaired using both inserts & helical wire inserts, and there's no way I'd ever do another critical repair using an solid insert. (Note the mention of helical wire... theres an alternate to the Helicoil branded inserts, made by Kato, and their insert and insert methods are superior to Helicoil brand.) If you don't know how to properly insert a helical type insert or have the tools needed to insert one, take it to a competent mechanic who will do it for you.

Once I found it I tailed it for about 1.5 hours...circling and criss-crossing overhead, taking pictures and video and waving at the engineer and other people on the train. What a hoot.

I couldn't understand why these four guys were waving their arms wildly at my while I taxied in...thought maybe my tail was on fire, or maybe I had knocked the tail off with my landing. I decided to go to KRVS about half an hour before I got there...and about 15 minutes before that I had been googling you, trying to find your address so I could buzz your house, but decided I didn't have time as I had a 3+hr flight home with a 30mph headwind. How odd that I ran into you as a result of my decision not to go see you. Very sorry to hear about your cousin also...sounds like an odd accident, I hope you and the rest of his family are doing OK. Sure was good to see you Jim...I'd love to come see your plane soon, maybe this spring. We should get together more than once every six years. As a downside, my pocketwatch and thermometer somehow went missing sometime on Saturday...if anybody runs across those, please let me know.
