Thanks for the replies but it still doesn't help me to determine if it is a type
1 or 2
I have found this but am not sure if I am reading it correctly
If you look at L2A It reads similar to J2A then J2A is similar to J2B that has
a type 1 ring. So I read it as the L2A has the type 1

I can't get it to work as a link so hope it will work if you cut and paste
What do you guys think

That's what the flying wires between the lift struts are for. Between them
and the roll wires on the cabanes, the wing manages to keep itself aligned
with the fuselage.

With the configuration of a Piet or a GN-1 and parallel lift struts it would
appear to me that you would have to have the cross bracing. Other designs
get around this of course by the "V" configuration of the lift struts.

stainless steel cables have been the standard for aircraft construction sin
ce the 1940's=2C and every single production plane in the world that I know
of uses stainless cable. I didn't use it because I wanted to wrap/solder
my connections=2C but there is absolutely nothing wring with stainless goin
g around pulleys=2C period. If I lived near salt water=2C there is no ques
tion but that i would use sgtainless=2C though.

Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: cables
It's not the lubrication that's the problem.
We all know that a piece of wire will break if it's bent
back and forth a number of times. Well=2C stainless will
crystalize and break a lot sooner than non stainless.
As the cable moves back and forth over a pulley it is
doing the same thing a little bit at a time. The question
is=2C how long before that break will happen? The other
question is=2C how long before your cables=2C in your
location=2C where your plane will spend the rest of it's
days=2C will rust and need replacement? To me=2C the
former is of greater concern and my plane will live
500 ft from the shoreline of the Salish Sea in the
company of forty others=2C some of which have been
there since the fifties. There's also a hundred or so
aircraft at Boundary Bay that are within a quarter mile
of the same salty waters. All cabled with galvanized
and 85% of them have never seen the inside of a
hanger.
Ask around. I think for a lot of you=2C strange looks will
be the order of the day with the question=2C " Why do
you want to do that? It's not a seaplane is it?"

Subject: | Re: Fuselage question |
Ken,
I believe there are wedges at major stress points... the first 3 verticals:
-- the firewall, likely at both upper and lower longerons;
-- the lower longeron at front main LG attach point;
-- the lower longeron at rear main LG attach point.
I have also added wedges at one other spot-- where I attach:
a) the pivots for the tailwheel assy.(steel angle pivots are outside and under
the lower longeron) and
b) fittings attaching cables that run to the pilot seatbelt and pilot shoulder
harness (steel strip fittings inside the lower longeron).

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Fuselage question
Members of the list:
While cutting and piecing together the fuselage, it is my understanding the struts
and side braces are to have wedges inserted between them before you glue on
the plywood gusset. Question: Do you apply these wedges between all struts and
braces on both the top and bottom of each side? Not sure where these wedge
pieces belong and, if they should be included in all areas where the struts and
bracing come in contact with the longerons.
Any advice is much needed advice.....

List,
They say that if you have an engine hanging from a tree, you're a redneck.
How about if you have an engine hanging from a beam in your garage?
The attached picture is just before I loaded my engine back in my truck for
next weekend's CC #18, in Livermore, CA. With any luck, I'll run that engine
on a test stand, with William Wynne's supervision!

Subject: | Plans and books for sale |
I have a full set of plans (all the options available for the Pietenpol family)
for sale. I paid $260 for them and will take $175, and will include US mail
postage on the plans. I've unrolled them three times. I also have the 1929
and 33 Flying Manuals; the 1930, 31, and 32 Flying and Glider Manuals,; the EAA
Aircraft Welding book; the HP Books' "Welders Handbook"; all 4 of the Tony Bingelis
books; the EAA "How To" Wood Book, the EAA Welding and Corrosion DVD,
and the EAA "Basic Aircraft Woodworking" video. I paid $190 for the EAA books,
and will take $90 for the lot. I also have William Wynne's Corvair Flight
Engines and the FlyCorvair.com Flight Operations Manual. I paid $84 for the two
WW books, and will take $45 for the pair. I also have Michael Perez's first
4 videos, I paid $70 (a bargain) for the group, and will take $25 for all four.
I have Mike Cuy's video, which Mike sells for $25 (another bargain), and
I will take $10 for it. I haven't copied or in any other way duplicated any of
these things. I have over-extended myself, and need to part with some things
that I won't be able to afford to use for at least 3 years. I would prefer
to ship by some method that has tracking capabilities (for your and my protection)
, and is reasonable priced, like the US postal 2day flat rate packaging.
I think the minimum is about $5.00 including the tracking, and max of $12.00
including the tracking, except for the plans. If anyone is interested in any
or all, please call me at eight zero one - eight seven nine - seven one two four.
If you buy all of it, I'll take $325 and I'll pay the postage, and I can
take credit cards through PayPal. I need expense money to move to Baton Rouge
to start a new A&P job, that I've been looking for since I finished school May
4th. If I had had an inkling it was going to be this difficult to get an A&P
job, I wouldn't have thought about building an airplane, much less bought all
the prep work things. I'm not sure if I would have started school.

If I don't have a car in the garage when it rains, I wont have warm home
made chocolate chip cookies delivered to the garage anymore. And I love
chocolate chip cookies.

List,
They say that if you have an engine hanging from a tree, youre a redneck. How about
if you have an engine hanging from a beam in your garage?
The attached picture is just before I loaded my engine back in my truck for next
weekends CC #18, in Livermore, CA. With any luck, Ill run that engine on a test
stand, with William Wynnes supervision!

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Plans and books for sale
I have a full set of plans (all the options available for the Pietenpol family)
for sale. I paid $260 for them and will take $175, and will include US mail
postage on the plans. I've unrolled them three times. I also have the 1929
and 33 Flying Manuals; the 1930, 31, and 32 Flying and Glider Manuals,; the EAA
Aircraft Welding book; the HP Books' "Welders Handbook"; all 4 of the Tony Bingelis
books; the EAA "How To" Wood Book, the EAA Welding and Corrosion DVD,
and the EAA "Basic Aircraft Woodworking" video. I paid $190 for the EAA books,
and will take $90 for the lot. I also have William Wynne's Corvair Flight
Engines and the FlyCorvair.com Flight Operations Manual. I paid $84 for the two
WW books, and will take $45 for the pair. I also have Michael Perez's first
4 videos, I paid $70 (a bargain) for the group, and will take $25 for all four.
I have Mike Cuy's video, which Mike sells for $25 (another bargain), and
I will take $10 for it. I haven't copied or in any !
other way duplicated any of these things. I have over-extended myself, and need
to part with some things that I won't be able to afford to use for at least
3 years. I would prefer to ship by some method that has tracking capabilities
(for your and my protection) , and is reasonable priced, like the US postal
2day flat rate packaging. I think the minimum is about $5.00 including the tracking,
and max of $12.00 including the tracking, except for the plans. If anyone
is interested in any or all, please call me at eight zero one - eight seven
nine - seven one two four. If you buy all of it, I'll take $325 and I'll
pay the postage, and I can take credit cards through PayPal. I need expense money
to move to Baton Rouge to start a new A&P job, that I've been looking for
since I finished school May 4th. If I had had an inkling it was going to be
this difficult to get an A&P job, I wouldn't have thought about building an airplane,
much less bought all the prep work things. !
I'm not sure if I would have started school.

Well, I'm happy to report that the main tank is galvanized, not fiberglass. I'll
still have to cut through fiberglass to get to the tank, however.

No, it has 480hrs on it w/out the strut cables (not 40). Not sure if it ever had
cables before, but I suspect this one never had them. The guy that bought it
as a project and rebuilt it after the mishap in back in 2000 never put cables
on the struts. He only put a couple of hrs on it himself before I bought it..sans
engine. He's the one that mentioned if a wing drops, it takes all she got
to get her back on an even keel. Now, the original builder could have had them
on there, but maybe he didn't (?).. That mishap in 2000 also could have just
been a simple stall on climbout if he took off at too low an airspeed. Guess
I'll be adding the cables ..

You know you are a redneck if you have a car air conditioner like this.

It was a pleasure to meet John for the 1st time and to get to spend some more time
with Hans and Karen. Thanks to all of them for a really nice evening.
Also got to see Hans at the Critter's Lodge fly-in in Centerville, TX this weekend
(a wonderful outing). Two Corvair Piets at a small fly-in in central TX.
Lots of fun.
Photographic evidence of the Brew Boys festivities attached.
