My GN-1 Piet has the door. It weighs 705 empty and with a Sensenich 72X42 prop on my A-65 I was getting 250 fpm climb with a combined 410 lbs of pilot/passenger. About 430 lbs of load is the most I've carried without feeling really marginal. With my current prop though my cruise suffers. Coming back with Randy Bush I was making about 68 at 2250. I normally cruise 65 at about 2100. -------- Dale McCleskey Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=306654#306654 ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 05:05:13 AM PST US From: Ben Charvet Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: To Door or not to Door I think the door will always be controversial. I just couldn't make myself cut that upper longeron. My wife has had a spinal fusion and multiple orthopedic problems, and can still get in the front seat with no problem. I did make my cabanes 2 inches taller than the plans, and put a cross brace 2 inches down from the top of my split gear for her to use as a step. We are both 55 now. I put a retractable step to make it easier to get into the rear cockpit, but never use it. I have the long fuselage, used Douglas Fir entirely, with an A-65. Empty weight came in at 692, and I grossed it at 1200. I've flown it twice at full gross and it still has a decent rate of climb. I agree with Jack, that the minor acrobatics required to get in, can help you eliminate inappropriate passengers. I have a maximum passenger limit of 200 pounds with full fuel. How do you eyeball a female potential passenger to determine if she is over that limit? I'm sure not going to ask!

Douwe, how about catching me up to date on your rebuild? You can contact Jay Anderson at 325-356-2810. Tell him Gene said hi. I was the first to use his prop on a Piet and I can't tell you how good he was to work with. When I was on your case about getting you to get to work on your plane, after it was dinged up, I was called "cruel" by some. If they think I was cruel to you then I guess I'm being REALLY cruel to my self by undergoing some really bad Chemo. Now that's being CRUEL. But then you're going to end up with a great, and safe plane to fly and I'm going to end beating the cancer. Guess there is something to be said about having the balls to be "cruel".

From: Mark Roberts Hey Jim! Sorry I missed this post a few days ago! Contact me off line when you can. I think there might be a couple of holes missing for the rear support (R12a and b) struts. Not hard to drill yourself, but I am not sure if they are missing on yours or not. I've got one rib built, and starting back up again soon. With all the summer distractions, I've gotten behind! Glad to hear from ya! It was great to meet you and your family when you came through. What a great sport this one where we can eventually meet some of the folks we swap ideas with over the forum!
