    Dave-saw your video on the website. glad you did OK. I forget what you're using for an engine and what verson you built. but I am at 3280ft. elevation here in the Texas panhandle and the take-off in mine doesn't excite me too much even with the 100 plus HP ( suposedly) Corvair and about 768# empty weight. th under-camber wing does fine flying and lands pretty good. I have about 6 flights on it now and have grounded it till I get the ailerons stiffened up. I am glueing some stiffeners in them right now but have taken a 2 week job down in south west Texas so that is on hold for a while. I'll be leaving for Coyanosa this afternoon.it hit 105 here yesterday with 45 mph winds and lots of grassfires. so the Texas panhandle has not been a Piet friendly place for a long time.I am just interested in why you need to move your gear forward? what kind of empty tail weight did you end up with on your W&B& what kind of engine do you have?

    Mark, I found that the tongue and groove method was difficult, too, and classify mine as barely acceptable. Chris Tracy's, though, and Jim's, look to be first class.

    Gene, where did you get the automotive sloshing sealer? Is it available most everywhere? What type of construction did you use? Would that sealer work with a fiberglas tank? Thanks, Chuck ----- Original Message ----- From: Gene Rambo To: pietenpol-list Sent: Sunday, May 29, 2011 8:45 AM Subject: RE: Pietenpol-List: tank sealant Douwe, what is wrong with sealing it on the INSIDE with sloshing sealer? I have always used it and swear by it. They make an automotive sloshing sealer that is alcohol-proof for todays autofuel that I am putting in my tank. If you are only going avgas, the aviation sealer works great. I have heard horror stories, but have never had any trouble at all with it. A little lacquer thinner sloshed around first, air dry it with compressed air, and slosh the inside with the sealer. I have cut one of my tanks open and you could not scrape the sealer off with a razor blade. Proseal is so thick, I don't think you will be very happy trying to brush it on, and it wil look like hell.

    Subject: Markle Palooza
    Speaking of California, I'm sitting in Room 107 of the Econo Lodge in Fallbrook, California typing this. About halfway to our new home in Oregon, so far so good. No airplane with me this time though. Boy was I shocked to see a Tri-Pacer taking off in about 30-35 MPH gusty winds from an airpark somewhere around Eloy, Arizona yesterday. In the Piet, I would have been worried about having enough fuel to return to the field after turning downwind ;o) The Econo Lodge in Fallbrook is very close to the airport here... I saw what I thought was a Mooney Mite landing yesterday but it was probably my eyes deceiving me. And they say that the Fallbrook airport is sort of like a carrier deck... on a mesa with dropoffs at both ends. Jim: all of my tools are still in Texas and the hangar is locked, so don't bother coming up to visit or hunt for tools until I get everything moved to Oregon ;o) Oscar Zuniga Air Camper NX41CC "Scout" Flying Squirrel N2069Z "Rocket" San Antonio, TX (soon to be Eagle Point, Oregon) website at http://www.flysquirrel.net

    Although I haven't checked recently, I would presume someplace like J.C. Whitney Automotive would probably carry slosh-type automotive gas tank sealer. I purchased some from them about 20 years ago when I was restoring my 1967 Ford Fairlane 500's gas tank. I would be worth a look in one of their catalogs or on their website to see if they still have it available. -------- Billy McCaskill Urbana, IL tail section almost done, starting on ribs soon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=341513#341513

    Hangar day three, arrangements made for more company at the hangar.

We consumed the cold ones from the fridge and replaced with the slightly warmer ones. We sat talked piets he checked out mine, all piet parts now all in one place and spread out of benches and hanging on the walls. Holey crap I never realized I had the much stuff done until seeing it as it is. No more wood shop hobby stuff but a real live airplane. It seems like a magic transformation from saw dust and sticks in the basement to an airplane space specifically designed and built to store build and assemble real airplanes for real airplane folks, hard to imagine the feeling.

    Larry, If you haven't already, be sure to look up DL Grammont at Lancaster. He bought a Pietenpol about 7-8 years ago and kept it in the new (then) hangars at the south end. He was in the next to the last row I think, his hangar faced south. Also, go by the CAF hangar next time it's open and see if Tom Travis is around. He lives over in the Farmers Branch area, is active with the CAF and is building a Pietenpol. And he's a great guy.

    Hi Rick, I can't go - too much to do on the farm after a too-wet Spring made it impossible to do anything until this week. However, several guys from my EAA Chapter, #82 in Alliance, OH will be there. They are KR builders, but I don't hold that against them :).

    Thanks for posting the link to that, Bill. I would have done that, but my wife was rushing me out of the house earlier to head out to a cookout with some friends from church. Had to do what I had to do in order to maintain domestic tranquility... -------- Billy McCaskill Urbana, IL tail section almost done, starting on ribs soon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=341549#341549

    Just sent directly to your personal email address. I added another section of 1/16" LE ply today but won't bore everyone with more pictures.... :-) -----Original Message----- From: Timothy Willis Sent: May 30, 2011 9:44 PM Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Pietenpol-List Digest: 18 Msgs - 05/29/11 Jim Markle, For some reason I am not seeing your attached pix of work on Le ply or your TE wood.

I know no one will believe this so I've attached pictures .....I cut some 1/16" ply and started covering the remaining wing panel LE today. And did a bunch of sanding.... That was fun.....REALLY fun. I've also attached a picture of a VERY simple way to do the TE...used my biscuit joiner to make grooves in the TE of the ribs and ran the TE material across the table saw a couple extra times to make a tongue. Slipped the tongue into the rib groove then used a small router with a laminate trimmer bit to clean up any of the tongue on the TE material that wasn't inserted into the rib. Very simple, quick and strong. Thanks Gary. Jim in Pryor

    From: "K5YAC" <hangar10@cox.net>
    Fun to be on the field, right John? The visitors are kind of a break even deal... most serve to educate and inspire, which also serves to keep the desire to build ramped up... but the trade off is that those inspiring conversations can, and often do kill several hours at a whack of perfect building weather... especially when beets are involved. I'm not complaining, I love visiting with the guys, but there are times that I open the hangar doors with a plan in mind and when I leave several hours later, the plan hasn't changed any. LOL! Oh well, glad you are enjoying your new digs! -------- Mark Chouinard Wings, Center Section and Empannage framed up - Working on Fuselage Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=341558#341558
