      OK, I'm going to annoy everybody one last time with this announcement  
      - come on by, it's going to be a great Fly-In!
      
      If you are working on a Corvair conversion, bring your case for Roy  
      to spec.
      
      
      AA 82 is having it's 4th Annual "WINGS AND WHEELS FLY-IN" on Saturday  
      and Sunday, June 5 & 6th at Barber Airport (2D1).
      
      The field is located approximately three miles  north of Alliance,  
      Ohio on State Route 225.  There will be aircraft with automotive and  
      alternative engines - CORVAIRS AND VOLKSWAGENS on display.
      
      Ther will be a pancake breakfast on Saturday and Sunday from 7 till  
      11 AM with lunch on Saturday from noon till 2 PM.  This event is open  
      to the public.
      
      There will be homebuilt aircraft ( KR-2S's, Pietenpols, an Afford-a- 
      Plane), PRA #19 (Rotorcraft Chapter) will have trikes and a  
      demonstrator, and Vintage and Antique aircraft (Waco 9, Fleet,  
      Taylorcrafts) on the field.  There will be a fleet of some nicely  
      restored Corvair cars on display.
      
      There will be several Corvair engines and a "Roy's Garage" Fifth  
      Bearing on display for those who are interested in using a Corvair in  
      their project.  Roy Szarafinski of Roy's Garage will be present to  
      answer questions about his bearing and will gladly check your engine  
      cases for proper tolerances before you start an engine rebuild.
      
      The fly-in hours will be Saturday... 7 AM - 4 PM and Sunday... 7 AM -  
      2 PM.

      Last night I finally had a chance to put the prop on and do a quicky weigh
      ing. With me as pilot, the CG is too far aft of range by only .3". I can
       fix this with just a little weight up front. I am going to calculate how
       much I will need up there in order for my 170 lb. son to fly it, then put
       that lead up front and leave it till next winter. Man does this airplane
       ever look cool with that scimitar prop!!!! If I do say so myself. Photos
       to come in a few days!!!

      Can't you just move your wing back an inch or so?  I waited until the 
      airplane was all assembled to make my final front braces.  My initial 
      W/B was a lot worse than yours.  Can't wait to see it at Brodhead!

      Thanks Glider.
      -
      I figured there were no hard numbers on Pietenpol cable tensions, but I tho
      ught I would ask just in case someone took the time to put a meter on their
      s as reference.- I'll go ahead and tension as needed for the right balanc
      e between no sag and too tight. (common sense)
      -
      It's all temporary anyway for now...it all comes apart for varnish/fabric, 
      etc.

      Hi Ben,
      
      Being a purist, I refuse to move my cabanes off of perfect vertical. I rea
      lly like the Piet look with the cabanes straight.

      I'll be curious, how much does-your Piet-weigh?

      Since-we both are-purists, we should know that the F&GM plans says "The
       center struts lean back one-half inch", but you have the BHP lost papers, 
      so-don't listen to me :-)

      Do you think Bernard built every one of his "pure" Pietenpols (who could
      make a purer one them him?) with the cabanes vertical?  I seriously doubt
      it.

      Santiago is correct...on the EAA reprint, check Figure 1 on page 7. There's
      a note above the side view drawing of the airplane that says:
      
      "Note: The center struts lean back one-half inch, and are cross-braced on
      the front, rear, and right sides only".
      
      But then...you didn't go the cross-bracing route either....hmm...how to
      reconcile this....   ;)

        Hi Ben,
      
        Being a purist, I refuse to move my cabanes off of perfect vertical. I
      really like the Piet look with the cabanes straight.

        Can't you just move your wing back an inch or so?  I waited until the
      airplane was all assembled to make my final front braces.  My initial W/B
      was a lot worse than yours.  Can't wait to see it at Brodhead!

          Last night I finally had a chance to put the prop on and do a quicky
      weighing. With me as pilot, the CG is too far aft of range by only .3". I
      can fix this with just a little weight up front. I am going to calculate how
      much I will need up there in order for my 170 lb. son to fly it, then put
      that lead up front and leave it till next winter. Man does this airplane
      ever look cool with that scimitar prop!!!! If I do say so myself. Photos to
      come in a few days!!!

      to whether my guess was right is up now.- Someone with a flying airplane 
      measure their cable tension, and see if a "fwang" is anywhere close to 20 p
      ounds of tension. [Rolling Eyes] =0Ado not archive=0A=0A--------=0ALong fli

      I'll see your forward slanted cabanes, and raise you a cantilevered wing.
