| Subject: | Just A Few Days Left; Well Behind Last Year... |
Dear Listers,
There are just a few more days left of this year's List Fund Raiser. Response
has been good so far, but we're well behind last year at this point. If you've
been waiting until the last minute to make your Contribution, now might be good
time to show your support and maybe pick up a nice gift as well!
Please remember that there is no commercial advertising on these Lists and the
*only* means of keeping them running is through your Contributions during this
Fund Raiser. If it weren't for your individual Contributions, these Lists could
easily become economically infeasible and simply cease to exist.
You probably can't even take the family out to dinner for $20 these days, but your
individual Contribution of the same amount makes a huge difference in keeping
the List services alive.
Please make a Contribution today with a Credit Card or Paypal:

Or, drop a personal check in the mail to:

I'm not sure what cable you are referring to. I have a cub tank in my
Piet, and made my own mounting straps out of 4130 strips. I did solder
an extended neck on it. Mine was given to me.

I was going to build a Pietenpol back in 2001, but it's not going to
happen. So I'm selling the works. I've got over $200 into it. It
includes the manual (paid $28) and full plans ($138) which I bought
from Don Pietenpol. Also includes the wing section plan which I
guess is not accurate enough to be really useful. All of the 18X24
inch plans were professionally laminated at a cost of $40. Also
included is a Bill Rewey info pack ($8) and a Mike Cuy VHS video
($23) if you still have a tape player :-)
This is all the original, not photocopies. I didn't ever start the
actual building.
If you're interested, drop me a line at dtrain@ptd.net

Jim: I often get the same message and emails from AMSafety,
as well as a couple of others on the list... but I get the
digest version, not the instant messages so I always thought
it was just me.
And just to fill in some space here, don't let anybody know but
I played hooky from work yesterday afternoon and went flying.
My hangar-mate had a vehicle parked at an ag strip the other side
of Hondo and I flew him over to retrieve it. What a beautiful, crisp,
cold day to be out flying. Scout flew wonderfully and good landings
were made by all. It was humorous to see the mechanics over at the ag
repair shop all come running out to look at the Piet as we taxied up...
here are these guys all surrounded by dozens of huge crop dusters,
working on ailerons as big as an entire Piet wing, propellers that
looked like windmills, and these guys are all grins as they touched the
"real wood prop!" and fabric of an old Air Camper. Cameras came out
and they took pictures of Scout; it's good to see that airplane people
recognize and admire the classic lines of this airplane.
The frosting on the cake was after we got back to the hangar
(me with the airplane, Craig with his Jeep Waggoneer), we were standing
around talking when an honest-to-goodness Tiger Moth flew into the
pattern and started shooting touch and goes. Obviously someone was
getting instruction because there were two aboard, but the Moth was
just gorgeous... finished in silver with RAF roundels and a yellow
slash on the fuselage... and the Gipsy never missed a beat. They
probably shot a half-dozen landings, then headed off to the east
after wagging the wings. Gorgeous airplane.

Here's an image that shows almost exactly the color scheme on the Moth that we
saw flying around San Geronimo Airpark yesterday. Beautiful airplane.

That looks like the one that used to be based at Oak Grove (Pappy Spinks'
airport) south of Fort Worth many years ago, when I had my J-3 Cub based
there. The Tiger Moth was just a couple of hangars down from me. Did you
get the tail number of it?

2010
Hello All,
=C2-
I was extremely excited about CC#19 and I am really happy I was there. =C2
-I wanted to pass along the perspective of a first timer. =C2-
=C2-
I came with a core to tear down (my second) =93 I succeeded. =C2-
I came to meet some people and perhaps start some friendships =93 I s
ucceeded.
I came to learn =93 I did.
=C2---I watched Roy do a small but critical repair to a stud thread hole
using a tap and some loctite. =C2-
=C2---I saw how to put pistons on rods with a torch. =C2-
=C2---I saw how to correctly install a distributor and I learned about
=9Cadvance=9D when William Wynn checked the timing on Gardnir M
asons engine and then I read=C2-William Wynn=99s article about his
Gardiner's plenums =93 and I learned a lot more.
=C2---I saw a small problem with the teeth on a crank that prevented 360
rotation, and I watched the cleanup.
=C2---I saw people take their cases apart numerous times to =9Cget
it right=9D not to =9Cget it done=9D
=C2-
It was great seeing engines in just about every stage of completion.=C2-
It provided for opportunities to see problems that can and do occur and to
see a remedy.
=C2-
And I was able to re-evaluate many of my =9Cdecisions=9D. =C2
-I have changed direction on several things. =C2-Most notably I will be
doing a front starter and dyno. =C2-Hand propping is ok on an A-65 but n
ot on a 6 cylinder corvair.
=C2-
And thanks to P.F. Beck, I got my first ride in a great Corvair Powered Pie
tenpol.=C2-
=C2-
The folks who sponsored CC #19 in Barnwell SC are absolutely the finest peo
ple you will ever meet. =C2-They welcomed us into their facilities and of
fered everything at their disposal to us. =C2-I will definitely be return
ing to Barnwell Regional next year for CC 21? and I will be leaving with a
running engine!=C2- Barnwell Regional will be one of the first places I w
ill fly my Pietenpol into as well.

Hey All,
-
Haven't seen any comments here about the Matronics operating cost Fund Rais
er so I thought I had better bring the subject up.
-
Since I started to build my Piet last April, I have been a voracious consum
er of all things aviation as it applies to mainly the ELSA catagory. Of cou
rse when I found the Matronics sight I was tootin' in tall cotton. (thats a
good thing)- I feel like I have gotten to know many of you and I look fo
rward to the readin' all the emails mails every day and often twice a day.
I attended Brodhead this year and thoroughly enjoyed every minute, even the
thunderstorm. The comraderie and companionship in this community is pricel
ess and the information sharing is awesome. And when someone has extra part
s to share they do so at a friendly price. Thanks for the prop Oscar.
-
Time to get to the point. The Fund Raiser. I'm sure most all of you have pa
rticipated in a fund raiser at some point. Helped your daughter sell girl s
cout cookies, helped your wife make cupcakes for the bake sale, enjoyed Tri
via Night with friends.
It doesn't have to be a lot unless you have it to spare. I gave $20 bucks.
Not much I know but I still need a few more turnbuckles.
