My English teacher Mother would be appalled. Seems like the most mis-spelled word is HANGAR. It's typically posted as HANGER which is something you hang something on, not a garage with an airplane in it. I've also noticed another strange thing on the list; some people misspell PIETENPOL and put GN-1 instead???? Maybe it's a cryptic abbreviation from Mr. Pietenpol that I don't know about. Oh, well. Back to my new high tech, super powerful almost finished power-plant! (Working on the compressor section now.) Larry W. I drive a hybrid. It burns rubber and gasoline! ________________________________ Message 2 _____________________________________ Time: 06:56:33 AM PST US From: Doug Dever Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: Re: Plnas came in !! nope i known wat he ment. do not archive Doug Dever In beautiful Stow Ohio > Date: Tue=2C 24 Aug 2010 18:15:33 -0400 > From: bencharvet@gmail.com > To: pietenpol-list@matronics.com > Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Plnas came in !! > > > does it bother anybody that this thread has been going on for a week > with the subject line misspelled? > > Ben > On 8/24/2010 7:43 AM=2C j_dunavin wrote: > > > > > oh ya=2C that's the place=2C but they want $20 a board ft.

'Don's dream Machines' out in GA.. is overhauling an A65-8 for my GN-1 and will be running her on a stand in next day or so. Very cheap/reasonable. I'm glad, as the one that the previous owner took off the GN-1 airframe that I bought was a -8. Now .. he did mention that he put the bigger piston pins(but not the 75 pistons)drilled something(rod's), etc, etc... in the event that I convert it to 75hp later. He thinks it's safe to run at higher rpm by getting smaller prop as an "experimental" if I desire to do so, but me thinks me wants to play it safe and get a 72x42pitch. Any thoughts on that...best prop?... especially from GN-1(w/A65) folks? I would really like a wood prop...

In fact, one time his bill was so low that when he told me the amount over the phone, I thought he had missed a decimal place! Literally ten times cheaper than what I had been quoted by others. On other things he's not so inexpensive, but he's always at least competitive. As to prop size, did Don know that this is going on a VERY high-drag plane? As the list knows, my very limitede experience is that you're better off with a long prop with less pitch versus the other way around. Don tends to like to make things go fast and faster. He may not appreciate our type of flying. Not casting aspersions, just saying that there's horses for courses. At 3:24 PM -0700 8/25/10, TriScout wrote: > >Got an engine.. yippie!
