Ken,
I'm NOT an authority on engines but think Lycomings in general are more
expensive to maintain. I will send you a name off list of a fantastic
fellow that can answer all your questions.

Subject: Pietenpol-List: Engine question
Members:
I received a call today from a local aviator who was at our EAA chapter
meeting and heard I was searching for an engine to hang on my pietenpol. He
advised of a 0290 135hp Lycoming engine removed form a Tripacer that had
been damaged. The engine has been rebuilt with 37 hours and then pickled.
Not sure what is missing but the majority is all their (might need a few
items). I have not seen the engine as I wanted to ask a few questions to the
list.
1. Never heard of a Lycoming with fuel injection. Is this 0290 135 hp a good
engine for a pietenpol?
2. The engine has been rebuilt with 37 hours total time; no logs. What has
to be done since it is pickled to bring it back to life?
3. Does anyone have time and/or history on this type of engine? Good? Bad?
or run as fast as I can? Can parts be easy to find?
I need your help fellow pieters!
Ken

the battery already needed as a transponder is required here.
Jeff,
Check the regs - if you don't have an electrical system, you're grandfathered in
(like Cubs and Champs - assuming you're in the US).

Yes, I'm considering flying the I-10 to I-5 route or
some modification thereof (maybe follow the central valley
rather than I-5 but have not hardened my travel plans yet.
Our daughter lives in Fallbrook, CA (moving to Carlsbad, CA
this summer) so I will more than likely make that the pivot
point for my west-to-north turn in CA. Also got a good
pilot buddy with a place in Joshua Tree, another up by
Grass Valley, another in Hanford... so lots of places I'm
going to try to hit on the way.
And I like sliced jalapenos on my burgers.

Wow, I envy you for making that trip Oscar. I've flown my plane from
Indiana to TX and OK to Oshkosh and back, and all over TX & OK & parts
of Arkanas. Those long trips were REALLY a lot of fun, but there were
no dramatic changes in scenery. I really want to fly the country from
coast to coast or near that in my GN-1 one day. Going TX to Oregon,
you'll get new and dramatically different scenery every day. Plains,
deserts, mountains, hills, forests, lakes and rivers all in one
trip....very neat.
Take a good camera, and tell us about it.

Charles, We installed one of Wynne's electronic distributers last year and
like it.- It is a Crane Cams ignition module, and a regular set of points
in a dual point distributer.- We fly on the electronic ignition, and the
points are for back-up.- We test both before take off during the run up.
- We had the regular dual points distributer before and pretty much did t
he same thing.-

Palomar airport, at Carlsbad, is where I soloed in 1967, way before I flew
stuff with stars on the sides and way, way, before I discovered the joys of
stick-and-rag Piets.

My wife and I are taking a 40th anniversary trip next week to the Bozeman,
Montana region. Are there any Air Campers or Sky Scouts near there that I
could go visit? My wife is pretty lenient about such things.

If you follow I-5 or 99, you can stop in Colusa (O08) for as long as you
want. I have a hangar for your plane and a big house for your sleeping
pleasure. From here it is off to Redding; Bend, Oregon, etc. Free food and
lodging for you and your plane.
Thanks and fly SAFELY,

Looks good, Don! I must admit, I'm somewhat partial to green and cream
colored airplanes.

I don't mean to get anyone too bored but I thought I might post a couple of
videos of our Chief that my dad and I recently restored. If you know my
Piet you might recognize the fact that I had some left over dope.

| Subject: | Two Fuse Questions |
Hi All,
I've got my longerons and struts/braces #13, 14, and 15 in the jig, and I also
have a couple of questions. Since there will be gussets on both sides, is there
much benefit to glueing the butt joints? Also, I see that struts/braces 2
through 6 are made with 7/8" by 1" - yes, it would be a bit heavier, but would
it be OK to make them with 1" by 1"?
Thank you very much!
Lowell

I glued my gussets in place, but did not glue the butt joints. I doubt that it
would add much to the structure. As for the 1" x 1"... I can't see where it
would interfere with anything... perhaps someone else may shed some light on any
possible issues.

I have glued my butt joints whenever feasible, simply because more bonding is better.
But realistically speaking, there is minimal strength to be gained in the
process. The bulk of the strength will be carried by the gusset joints. When
you do glue the gussets in place, make sure you get full adhesive contact between
the gusset and the longerons/cross pieces.
As for substituting 1" x 1" for the 7/8" x 1", my question would be why do you
want to do that? It will be a little bit stronger and heavier, but the added strength
is unnecessary, and so is the weight. If it didn't make any difference,
then those pieces would be 1" x 1" in the plans. The load carried by that section
of the structure is a bit less, so the cross pieces can be made smaller.
Because extra weight (especially in the tail) is a no-no in building an aircraft,
it should be avoided whenever possible. Your plane will still fly if you
just use the 1" x 1", but it will fly BETTER if you follow the plans.

| Subject: | Will a children's car seat fit in a Piet? |
...because I might need to do that soon. :-)
Sunday evening my wife and I took our five week old daughter (our first
child) up for her first flight (in a Grumman, not the Piet). I've had my
five year old nephew in the Piet and the harness wasn't near tight enough,
so we taxied around for a while which he enjoyed. I hate to have to wait 7
or 8 years to put my little girl to fit in the GN-1, so I'm wondering if a
car seat will fit up front. I'm also wondering if we have enough pillows
that I could just stuff those around her and keep her from banging around
too much.
Also, if I do pull that off, I need suggestions on (#1) how to get my wife
to let me back in the house and (#2) how to get her to ever leave me alone
with the kid again. :)
When my daughter was 9 days old she and I made my traditional weekly
Saturday morning donut delivery to the pilot lounge at 1k4 (David Jay Perry
airport in Goldsby, OK). However, we took the Saturn, rather than the GN-1
which is how I usually deliver the donuts.
Being a Dad sure is fun, but I don't know how you other parents have time to
build airplanes. I'm trying to figure out how to wean myself off sleep
entirely.
Here are some pictures from Sunday:

The youngest I've taken was my son at almost 3 years old. The booster seat
fit just fine. My wife was concerned that a kid could unbuckle themselves
and leap out of the pit without me able to do much about it.
