    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?

Great town, stop by if you're ever in the area, just south of Indy. Great plane, looks like he'll be up and running soon. Ford powered, Jenny Gear, one piece wing. Very nice. Thanks Larry! "...

    I used 1 sheet of 1/4 inch, 2 sheets of 1/8 inch, and 1 sheet of 1/16 (for the leading edge of wing). If you are having it shipped, it 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. Bill C.

    I used 31 ribs. My fuel tank will be in the nose, so I kept the center rib in the center section. This rib will get modified so I can put baggage in t here, but it will still lend some support. -

    If I remember correctly, there is a side gusset right where the side plywoo d sheet stops; at the top. I believe the print shows this gusset as part of 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 Wilson N899WT

    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. ;) Ryan On Wed, May 26, 2010 at 9:37 AM, Jeff wilson <jlwilsonnn@yahoo.com> wrote: > Happy Wednesday Piet Pilots. > > This week I'm sitting here wondering about adverse yaw.

    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.

    Holy smokes, there is very little left of that plane. Of course, he was "cut from the plane," too, so the fuze thus became sticks. In any event, it is scary to behold. RIP, Mr. Rice.

    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.

    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 aircraft. Thanks guys!

    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 Shad

    Subject: Adverse Yaw
    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. Shad
