      Lb Hansen the guru of Cassutt Racers was killed on a test flight.  A friend
      in Des Moines is building one and had just corresponded with him prior to
      the accident.  As I get closer to flying my Piet these stories and thoughts
      concern me.  So sorry for his family and friends.

      If I had done that then  maybe 840 LM would have floated away from that

      They should have filled the wings and fuselage of the Piet with ping pong balls
      
      and empty milk jugs while building it...  ;)

      Mark, I used to watch Mike Cuy's video to get me recharged, especially the  
      part where he has a camera on him while he takes off and flies. That was 
      good  for several weeks of grunt work, like rib stitching. We all need that 
      boost from  time to time. But, it's all worth it when the plane flies!
      
      I'm in Lexington, Virginia, in the southern Shenandoah Valley. The  
      mountains are the Blue Ridge and the Alleghanies. We've had a lot of rain this
      
      spring so everything is particularly green. 
      
      Keep at it.

      Jack,
      
      
      That's the first time I've watched that video. That's a beautiful area. By
      my recollection of my first ride, if you turn up the computer volume, and
      the video volume, all the way, it's pretty realistic! I like the deer
      running across the runway right after you land and turn around..ever had any
      close calls?

      That's the closest that I know of.  I never saw that one until I watched the
      video.  Deer frequently run across the runway at that spot.  I think I'll
      put a tree stand there and hunt it with my bow this fall.

      Mark, I used to watch Mike Cuy's video to get me recharged, especially 
      the part where he has a camera on him while he takes off and flies. That 
      was good for several weeks of grunt work, like rib stitching. We all 
      need that boost from time to time. But, it's all worth it when the plane 
      flies!
      
      
      I'm in Lexington, Virginia, in the southern Shenandoah Valley. The 
      mountains are the Blue Ridge and the Alleghanies. We've had a lot of 
      rain this spring so everything is particularly green. 
      
      
      Keep at it.

      It's pictures like this that stoke the fires of enthusiasm for me and my

      Of course, I love the shots of the plane; she says "Wow, where's he

      If you notice, that deer isn't too bright. He/she tries to take off across the
      width of the runway. Can't really get up to speed to generate enough lift, and
      just manages a hop. Then again, it doesn't appear to be a reindeer, so it probably
      can't even really fly.

      I  am wondering about the flex in my ailerons on the GN-1 I finished and started
      flying. a friend was looking at it and pointed out that there is quite a bit
      of weakness in the aileron when you put some tension or lift toward the ends
      of them-at the trailing edge. it wrinkles the fabric pretty easy and he was concerned
      that there might be something coming apart. I cut the fabric away from
      the underside of the left one to be sure and it looks OK. it just is not a very
      stiff spar on the front and there are no X or V braces going back to transfer
      the loads like I have seen on other designs. I may be over-complicating the
      thing. it has flown OK up to now. I see nothing in the plans to indicate anything
      other than the simple spar and ribs going back to the aluminum trailing edge
      I have - this wing was the project I bought from D.J. Vegh. I am in the unfortunate
      shape of needing to go away on a job for a couple weeks and it would
      be good to have this fixed before too long but other than peel all the fabric
      off and glue a continuous strip of plywood along the top and bottom of the spar
      and maybe some angle strips of wood back from the aileron horn area I am not
      sure what I might do to fix it or if i needs anything. have any of you ran into
      this and did it concern you? Raymond

      Wow....... I've been working on my Pietenpol for a lot more than 1000 hours. Look
      what NASA built in that time.....!
      
      A spacewalk for the history books
      
      Chamitoff and Fincke logged the 1,000th hour spacewalking in support of International
      Space Station assembly and maintenance at 4:02 a.m., four hours and 47
      minutes into the EVA. Spread over 159 shuttle and station spacewalks performed
      since construction began in 1998, the total time at the end of today's EVA was
      1,002 hours and 37 minutes dedicated to the space station.
