I would think it would add some lift, if it is parallel to the wing. The amount of added lift, would vary depending on the amount of power the engine is developing, as it would be directly in the prop blast.

(GRC-RXD0)[ASRC AEROSPACE CORP]" Subject: Pietenpol-List: Rick Holland's outstanding looking and sounding Pietenpol in Colorado I couldn't help but smile when watching this outstanding video of Rick Holl and's Corvair-powered Pietenpol video. (thank you Bill Church for the working link) If you close your eyes after engine start and let your mind listen, Rick's engine actually has the sound of a P-51 Rolls Royce Merlin engine in the lower RPM range. Magnificent Rick. Rick's cockpit and instrument panels are incredibly clean looking without c lutter or complexity and your workmanship looks nothing short of impeccable ! And did I notice you wearing a color-coordinated long sleeved shirt Rick ? Nice. If you've never met Rick at Brodhead or Oshkosh he's a very unassuming type who won't brag about the fact that he's an FAA Certified Flight Instructor or about his professional accomplishment s, yet he's been building for many years now and attending Brodhead for a long time in the background-keeping at it, slo wly but surely fabricating, learning, assembling, and reaching for the bottom of the 9th when he'll get his Airworthiness Cer tificate and start the second game of the double header as starting pitcher when he starts flying his beautiful new P ietenpol.

Douwe, this airplane is surely in a class by itself, artistically speaking. I don't think I have ever seen a homebuilt with this type of high-class ar twork and attention to detail. I REALLY like the anti-rotation axle gizmo-m ethod you have devised!! I am sure it will work. Are you related to Rube Go ldberg? White tires......very cool. We are going to have to create a whole new parking row for you at Brodhead.

Just kidding. WOW! That is a wild Art Deco cowling design you've come up with. And white tires. Where do you get this stuff? Really eager to see how this one turns out. Hopefully the completion date isn't connected to the "hood ornament" (when pigs fly). Bill C.
