| Subject: | N13691 Question Thread |
I'm wanting my build to have the same appearance as Allen Rudolf's N13691 Air Camper.
I have lots of questions concerning various aspects of this aircraft.
Has anyone here taken measurements of this aircraft? If so, is the distance from
firewall to center of front cabane strut bolt 12 1/2" or 14 1/2"? Or something
else?
Is wing built according to the 1932 FGM dimensions or of the 1934 "Improved" Air
Camper?
Does it have the 1932 square horizontal stabilizer or the later one that is narrower
in the front?
Does anyone have any pictures of it with the cowl off? Or close up pictures of
the magneto mount and radiator mount area?
More questions later. :D
Thanks Craig

Rick,
I'm almost at the same point. Brodhead 2011 would be quite a challenge, but
I would give me something to shoot for. 700 miles from PA. I'll see you th
ere!

Thanks Randy, I guess the only things standing between me and flying to Bro
adhead is covering and painting two wings, flying off 40 hours, and getting
the cahones to do an 820 mile cross country from Denver.

the one I bought had a test panel on the shelf. It was a real nice red,
and the test panel had a nice gloss to it. I think it was around $27.
Unfortunately the can is out at my hangar. I only used less than one
gallon for my fuselage and vertical stab, sprayed with an HVLP gun. I
used some flat Sherwin Williams gray for a base coat to fill the fabric,
2 coats brushed in opposite directions

Can't answer all those, but here's a photo of it under a shade tree in Indiana
after we pulled the engine to fix a cracked magneto mount, July 2009
No detail, but a photo of it the next day in a bean field in Illinois with a broken
crankshaft...
And Jack McCarthy's old engine going in July 2010
Others here can probably answer the questions, or you might have to get a hold
of Frank Pavliga for measurements.

I might have the measurement he's looking for from the Piet W&B data we collected
at Brodhead this year. Travelling to visit family at the moment, I'll check
later.

Will need to decide if you want your finish coat flat, stain, semi-gloss, gloss,
or high gloss and yes you want exterior. I used Satin to get a vintage dope
finish look. Also most manufacturers have 4 or 5 quality levels from cheap to
expensive, I went with one level below the expensive stuff. Its easy to fork over
$100 for a couple gallons of paint when you think about the $2500 you are
saving over a full PolyFiber job.

Your plane is looking really good Dave, thank you for sharing those photos. It
looks as though you might be able
to begin varnishing and fabric coming in 2011 even which his really commendable
and you've stuck with the project
quite a long, long way. You even look the part of a 1930's pilot with your beard,
helmet, goggles, and the Stroh's
brew can sitting far off in the background on one of your work tables. Good
man.
Great to see another Pietenpol getting birthed out of another quiet workshop where
these amazing little fun wood, metal,
and fabric planes are manufactured one by one all across this country and elsewhere
around the world.
You're doing a great job.
Mike C.

seeing it there. makes me can't wait to get the mains mounted up under her.
