OK, Hans... now you've got me curious. What are you building now?
Steel tube frame, could be just about anything! One-place, or two?
Monoplane or biplane? Conventional gear or tricycle? Aircraft
engine or converted automotive engine? Inquiring minds want to know!

Oscar,
I started to get ideas about an improved Air Camper, as many improvements h
ave been suggested on this list.
Increasing the width to 42 inches for side by side seating.
It ended up being a 4 seater.
For comfort I enclosed the cockpit.
Increased length by a few feet to compensate for a heavier more powerful en
gine.
I liked the smoothness of the 6 cylinder Corvair so I stuck with a 6 but wi
th more cubic inches (470) and a HP (230)
Engine is made by a Chinese owned company.
To control weight and increased strength I decided on a steel tube fuselage
.
Increased wingspan by a few feet to create extra lift.
For strength and weight savings I choose aluminum for the wing.
To keep landing speeds down and roll out short I added flaps.
Toyed with the name Air Camper XL
Then I found out that Bob Barrows a Pietenpol builder already designed this
airplane and called it a Bearhawk
Fuselage is all welded up, working on wings

I was holding my breath on that one to, Ryan. I believe there

No offense to that gentleman, but you'd do well to avoid
anything coming from the Aeromax group. Hit up the Corvaircraft group

Gents,
Is it just me or are you guys getting tired of the lawyer/rudder bar/
slightly antagonistic stuff going on lately. I'm almost starting to open my
list each morning with apprehension not knowing what next extraneous issue
we'll be batting around.
Here's a thought, let's take all that energy and direct it at building or

See what happens when the List stops debating the usefulness and safety of
auto engine conversions? Nine more days until I can resume my dissemination
of THE TRUTH. Then all this useless venom will be channeled into a positive
direction.
Soon it will be time to start planning the next covocation of Pietenpol
Enthusiasts at Brodhead. That should get the list into more constructive
comments. Brodhead will commence in just 134 days.

Talking about ugly and nasty internet newsgroups Corvaircraft is the worst I

Frank M (red/silver) and Bruce Laird (White/Blue) are flying their Big Piets
down to Sun n Fun this year. Harold J (yellow) and I are flying our J3's
down so we can participate in the Cub Convoy of 100+ Cubs. I am trying to
talk Gardiner Mason to join us with his Piet, so I need help on the arm
twisting. All in all we are flying: 2 J3 Cubs, 2 Big Piets, 1 Pietenpol, 1
Taylorcraft, 1 Champ, 1 ultralite and possible 1 Chief. Should be a fun
flight down from Carrollton, Ga (just West of Atlanta).

| Subject: | KM Heide or Minnesota Corvair Engine? |
Ken,
I was wondering if you still have that source available for a Corvair engine or
two that might be available. I'm interested. For that matter, anyone else in
Minnesota that might know of a guy with an engine available for purchase and
re-build, I'd be interested. None of the local salvage places seem to have any.
I suspect there are a lot more engines kept/hidden in barns and storage sheds
around here than you'll find on e-bay or on Craig's list. Any help would
be appreciated.
Tom

Thats how Our's is, just thimbles, and no shackles (on the vertical stab fi
ttings).- The turnbucle fork end on the horizontal stab fittings.- It's
fine that way, we have 264 hrs on the piet.- There isn't much relitve mo
vement there,-and thats what preflight inspections, and annual inspection
s are for.- Don't sweat the small stuff, keep on chugg'n along.

p.s. as you said, chamfer the holes a little to take off the shap corners o
f the holes.

How did you find the ragwing plans? I have plans for several of the ragwing designs
and hope to build from them. Currently finishing a GN-1 project that I

I liked some of the detailing and the structure seemed pretty effecient.

There was a comic artist named Gahan Wilson that did
these truly bizarre single panel drawings. They were
syndicated so you may have seen some of them. This
one that I can never forget is this big overstuffed chair
with a hand going down for the third time. Just like
this. Better grab onto that blue gloved friend of yours and
pull him out of there before he disappears forever!
