I don't post very often, as I like to sit back and just soak up the information
from everyone else,
but I told Gary Boothe I'd send him a pic or two updating the progress on my
cowl and I figured
I'd let everyone else see too. All of the firewall forward stuff really eats a
lot of time and seems like
it doesn't show. Friends drop by hearing that we have been working on the plane
and I'm sure they
can't see any progress. We do although, have the engine just about ready to
run, as soon as I get the
carb rebuilt and the air filter mounted. The cowl is getting closer, but there
is still a bunch to do there
as well. My dad (Vic) and I are still plugging away at it out here in
California, and may actually finish
it one of these days! Anyways, I'm gonna go grab my wife and daughter and go
enjoy the morning air
flying the Piper. Keep building!

John,
This is REALLY low tech, but you can save this jpg, then right click and
choose open with "Paint." You should have that program with most Microsoft
operating systems. That'll keep you busy for the rest of the day..

Wow...looking good Mike. With all due respect to other Corvair Piet
builders, that is quite possibly the most attractive Corvair cowling on a
Piet that I've seen yet. I take it you are either setup with a rear starter
or hand prop...?

Hi Mike,
Your cowling is looking good. Making it out of aluminium has got to be a real challenge;
you and your dad Vic are doing a nice job of it.
Now if you just had a 200 ton hydropress for the small stuff. We had one at the
Boeing plant I worked at and boy would that have made cowling and steel fitting
easy. Thats what my nightmares are made of.
Cheers,
Jim

Here's the one I use. Should work fine in Paint or pretty much any program.
Simple but it seems to give a good idea of things. when I'm bored or get an
idea I'll spend a few minutes to make up a new color scheme, must have a
hundred ideas by now. I think the original came from DJ Vegh way back when.

We are running a John Deere lawn tractor dynamo off the rear pulley with a
larger driven pulley to slow the rotation some. We are also running a rpm
pick up off the ring gear at the top off the starter bracket. I am not sur
e just what photos you would like but we would be happy to send you somethi
ng if it would help.
It is a bit tight but it all fits. We are just short of starting the engin
e so everything is in place in there. We hope to finish the cowling soon.
We will not be able to work on the plane for a couple of weeks but then wa
nt to finish the cowling. Where are you on your build=2C I assume you are
using a Corvair as well? Vic

You made my wife's weekend with her first ride in a Piet. I didn't know she was
out aviating and was looking for her since the prize givaway was starting.
When next I see her, she's walking from the flight line with a grin a mile across.
The misery from the storms of the previous days were wiped out with that
smile. Thanks.

My GN-1 actually has two doors. Check it out on westcoastpiet.com (N30PP). I REALLY
like having them. With no center section cutout or handhold, I can still
get in without doing the twister.

I was the guy in the enclosed black trailer camping out in the parking lot. Sitting
in that metal breadbox - when that "howitzer shot" went off - I thought he
camper was going to fold in on itself. It sounded like a ball-pean hammer was
hitting the trailer all night! My white 10x10 EZ-UP canopy collapsed from the
amount of rain. I was out every 15 minutes for almost 2 hours dumping rain
off it trying to keep the motorcycles dry. Gave up at 3am and the canopy looked
like a pretzel the next morning.
FYI - thanks to the Brodhead folks for letting me camp in the parking lot Sunday
night also! I blew a transmission line in the Suburban on Sunday morning just
as I was leaving for Oshkosh. I caught it at the gas station in town, and limped
back to the airport. Watched Kevin limp back after breaking his bungee cord
Sunday afternoon, then watched another movie at the hanger Sunday night (one
about the Canadian RCAF that was pretty lame, they forgot about the plot by
midpoint of the movie). Had the Sub at the chevy shop by 7:45 and it was fixed
by 8:30. They replaced the line for a total emergency fix of $120.
Many stories to tell this year!!

Thank you everyone for the positive comments on our cowling. The ring gear
is up =0Afront and is a standard WW part along with the starter he recommen
ds (with his =0Anose gear).- Although the starter is in stock form (not m
odified for low =0Aclearance as WW sells so we probably could have gotten t
he top down a little =0Alower if we had done that). As my dad said it all f
its in there somehow.- I had =0Aa certain look I wanted that included a r
ounded nose and bottom and a tight fit =0Aaround the engine.- We've manag
ed to get most of the look i wanted with a few =0Aadjustments to conform wi
th reality.- While my dad won't be able to work on the =0Aplane for a cou
ple weeks as he said, I will keep working on it as time allows.- =0AHopef
ully I'll have it ready and we can run it together when he is available to
=0Awork on it again.- If we don't keep working on it Gary Boothe, Jim Boy
er, or =0AChris Tracy is going to beat us into the air out here in Californ
