You are correct, it is not a Jenny. It is a Standard J-1; that was
even in the subject line of his email. :P
The Jenny, however, was not made by DeHavilland; DeHavilland didn't
even exist as a company yet. The Jenny (or JN series) was built by the
Curtiss Aeroplane Company of Hammondsport, NY.

Hi Guys...I am about to order my plywood for the Fuselage. Can someone confirm
I have this right please?
Floor is 1/4 inch.
Instrument panels, seat backs etc and gussets are 1/8 inch
Firewall is 1/8 inch although I found some in the Archives used 1/4 inch.
I am struggling to find what thickness to use on the side sheets. It looks like
7/32 or something on the plan. Its very blurred. Can I use 1/8 or what is it
meant to be?

a thoroughly enjoyable experience, plus Larry gave me a tour of Columbus,

Great plane, looks like he'll be up and running soon. Ford powered, Jenny

I used 1 sheet of 1/4 inch, 2 sheets of 1/8 inch, and 1 sheet of 1/16

probably makes sense to get it all at once.

Stop struggling.
It's right there in the middle of Drawing No 1.
1/8" plywood 2' x 6'.
By the way, the plans actually call for the floor to be 7/32", but 1/4" is more
commonly available.

If I remember correctly, there is a side gusset right where the side plywoo

the side plywood sheet. If you do it this way, you may need a few inches m
ore then 6'. Not sure, but take a look.

Subject: | Pietenpol list: Airplne Factory |
Happy Wednesday Piet Pilots.
With warm weather here now, I'm surprised to see so many messages here in t
his forum. All these posts must be from those with Perfect Piets and nothin
g else to do.
I would think that all those with airplane factories would be out there bus
y and have no time for the computer chat.
Of course there are builders in progress with legite questions to post. Som
e with 18 or so ribs done, some with a new set of plans and lots of questio
ns, some with corvair concerns and some T-88 mixing dillemas, some old buil
ders and some older builders, some material questions and some dimension qu
estions...and some who ''...just think about this''. But most of all there
are a lot of bold and adventurous experimenters.
In the dusty environment of my own airplane factory I sometimes sit and sta
re while pondering possibilities of my own Piet progress. Having decided on
an A-65 and a very nice Hegy prop (thanks OZ) and wire wheels I'm now pond
ering possible paints and leaning toward Dope. Its much lighter than any ot
her.
Also, last week I pondered out loud on flaperons. Of course that was merely
an exercise of mental speculation, knowing full well the answer was ''Tha
ts Ridiculous''
This week I'm sitting here wondering about adverse yaw. Without having sear
ched the archive first, does the Piet have a problem with it in general or
is it not much of a concern? If yes then I would like to throw this out the
re; how about differential aileron bellcranks? Of course that would mean a
rod from crank to aileron.

Jeff,
You will encounter adverse yaw in a Piet. Thankfully Bernard, in his
infinite wisdom, included a rudder in the design. As long as the pilot meets
the airplane halfway by having two functional feet it should be of no
concern. ;)

Right on, Ryan!
Yes, the Piet experiences quite a bit of adverse yaw. Since your feet need
to be awake for the landing anyway, you might as well keep them awake whene
ver you move the ailerons.
The adverse yaw is definitely NOT an issue.

I'm excitedly waiting for my plans to get here, so I can throw my two cents worth
into this question. If the cables are attached directly to the ailerons, with
only pulleys to guide the cables, it would take a serious deviation from the
plans to add a bellcrank. Which would get away from the KISS theory behind
this airplane. A bellcrank could be done without using a push rod, but would
involve more peices of cable. Back to deviating from the KISS theory. Just
a thought :o

Dave,
Where did you get these photos? I've only seen two of this airplane on
Don Parson's facebook page. He hasn't even posted them to his blog yet.
It's not a Jenny. The Jenny was a DeHavilland, this is a Standard. From
my limited understanding, it's noticeably larger than a Jenny. I think I'm
correct about that, but I've been wrong before. :)

Holy smokes, there is very little left of that plane. Of course, he was "cut from

Or we are un-retired Piet builders at work bored stiff with Internet access
(am I the only person in that category?). You know what would really be fun
would be to sneak your rib jig, capstrip, and T88 into work and get a few
ribs built.

Yes, 1/8 for the sides and firewall. I used Okoume marine plywood. I
think that grows down close to you, so check out the lumberyards that
cater to the boating industry. Just make sure it is marine grade, so
the glue used in making it will be waterproof.

Compared to the Baby Ace I was flying prior to my Piet, the Piet has far
less adverse yaw. The Baby Ace required you lead every turn with
rudder, and flew just like a Cub. My Piet doesn't require nearly as
much rudder. I built my aileron linkage per the plans, but my rudder is
2 inches taller than the plans.

If we know anyone at the SEC, we should suggest that they begin building ribs instead
of what they have been doing with their PCs at work. And this does not
even cover what they might have been doing with their hands.

Thank you all for your confirmation. I appreciate it!
Bill....you are right, one less glass of wine I think, none so blind as one who
does not wish to see! On sheet 4 it says the floor is 1/4 inch and on sheet one
the blurred dimensions say 7/32. Is it a mistake? Any way 1/4 inch is close
enough to both of them ;o)
Im ordering Hoop pine Marine grade ply as that is the Aussie standard here for

You are correct, it is not a Jenny. It is a Standard J-1; that was
even in the subject line of his email. :P
The Jenny, however, was not made by DeHavilland; DeHavilland
didn't even exist as a company yet. The Jenny (or JN series) was built
by the Curtiss Aeroplane Company of Hammondsport, NY.

Hello
This can be useful to someone.- I found a reference to the old designatio
n BHP used on his darwings for the Air Camper and Sky Scout's cabane struts
.
The 1667 struts-were welded at the aft edge, just like the lift struts Pi
etenpol used on his planes. Material is 1010 steel and were-made by Kawne
er Manufacturing Co.-
Please, someone correct me if I'm wrong.-

Subject: | Ohio Pietenpol Gathering |
Hello group, I haven't checked my email in about a week. I am trying to get my
hanger addition done so I can get the Piet back in the air. With any luck we
won't have the only static display Pietenpol at my own piet gathering. It is
just over 3 weeks untill it gets here so I am still going "balls to the wall,
and tree top tall". Looking forward to seeing all of you that can make it.
Hope the flying and building is going well, and hope everyone is staying safe.
To those that plan on attending remember to fly a NORTH PATTERN, left trafic
for R/W 10, left traffic for 28. And watch out for the R/C airplanes at the
south west end of the field, they are supposed to yeild, but..... If they dont
get out of you way you can drop waterballoons on em. If we can lets get a list
of what you each plan on bringing for a dish, so I can get the rest, pop,
chips, buns etc etc.
Talk to Y'all soon

I guess our piet does have quite a bit of adverse yaw. In a fast taxi I can make
turns with just the ailerons, of course the steering is backwards. But that
is why old Bernard put a rudder on the back...isn't it? Yes you can make a
more harmonized controled airplane by revising the aileron controls, but in my
oppinion just build it and fly it like it is. By the way we have top mounted
piano hinged ailerons, and they probably do have more adverse yaw than the plans
type hinges.
