I'm on my way to O'Hare at the moment, so I'll look this up once I get
to the hotel at my destination; if I recall, WW addressed this in a
post on the Corvaircraft list a number of years back. The applicable
crux of it was that for an airplane at Piet speeds. A three bladed
Warp Drive will weigh more, cost more, and not perform as well. As I
said, I'll look the post up later...otherwise, Gardiner, I would
suggest calling William directly. Have a good one,

Agree with Jack. Very cool.
And Scotty, if you happen to make it back down there, please get some pictures
of that step if you don't mind. Looks like it has a flap and I would love to
know it's inner workings. How the flap was made,,,,how and if it "retracts" when
you step into it, etc.
And thanks for the pics!

It's my understanding that the only reason the designers of a airplane
stipulate a 3- or 4-bladed prop is that the ground clearance is not
sufficient for a 2-bladed prop. In fact there was a lot or research done in
the 40's and 50's (I think) on a single-bladed prop to try to get better
efficiency. It didn't work out probably because of an unbalance situation.
The more blades rotating in disturbed air the less efficient the prop. So
putting a 3-blade prop on your Piet would probably reduce the performance.
As one on the list says, "My 2 cents."

Scotty,
Sure, if you have more photos, please post them.
Very interesting looking plane, with an interesting engine.
Here's a link to a photo of what the Salmson could look like if it were cleaned
up.

I just remembered, I need to let the people flying in for the Piet gatherin
g, the identifier has changed here.- On old sectionals (not that anyone w
ould ever use one of those!) it was OH71, now it should be marked as OH0(os
car-hotel-zero), which is the dumbest ident I can think of, an o and a zero
in the same 3 character ident?- And it is supposed- to be changed agai
n sometime in the near future to 6CM, but probably not before the fly-in.
- So look for Chapman Memorial Field, in Centerburg Ohio, fss will probab
ly still have it as OH0.

Charles,

Much agreed. When speaking with the manufacturer (Warp Drive) I discussed m
any of the same issues between two blade verses three blade. The overall ou
t come of the conversation - if you want a smoother prop and a quiet prop,
three blade is your answer. The tractor cut through the air is more efficen
t with a two blade prop than a three blade prop. However, even based on the
adjustable pitch you get a some differences but more on the smoothness tha
n bite through the air.
-
Also, in my experiences between using the three blade verses the two blade,
the three blade prop acts much like and air brake when you throttle back s
o make sure you are over the fence line as it will decrease your speed in a
hurry. My .02 cents worth....

When I get caught-up with everything else that is essential (who knows when
that will be) I wanted to attempt to carve a four-bladed prop just for fun
. I actually got the idea from reading a book that I've had since I was a t
een "Aircraft of World War One", by Kenneth Munson. It is simply a book tha
t takes one page each to show (photo) and describe one of the numerous type
s, with stats, that was utilized during that era. Recently, I have been re-
reading this book, and taking note of some cool-looking types with 4-bladed
props, such as Airco D.H.4, Royal Aircraft Factory B.E.2, and Siemems-Schu
cert D.III, just to name a few. There is probably a good reason that these
props did not endure, but I thought it would be fun just the same. It would
definitely be unique at Brodhead, that's for sure.

An excerpt from a post William just put up on the Corvaircraft list:
"BTW, I am willing to bet that no direct drive corvair will ever perform
better with a three blade than
a two blade prop. A number of people have asked about this reciently. The
primary thing people in light aircraft
are seeking with 3 blade props is smoothness out of a for cylinder engine.
Since we already have smoothness,
there is nothing to be gained, so keep looking at two blades for
performance. Notice that Glassair IIIs with
six cylinder 540cid Lycomings always have two blade props, but the Galssair
IIs with 360 cid four cylinder engines
mostly have three blades. Smoothness vs performance."

For Dan,
Here is a photo of a four bladed prop on a Vickers Vimy. It is from a recent visit
to the RAF Museum in London.
It is a beautifully carved prop, so maybe it will motivate you. I would love to
see it if you ever decide to do one.

Wow Terry, That is one gorgeous prop. If I ever get around to it, I'll for
sure try to make it to Brodhead, God willing. This is just a dream at this
point., but then again my whole airplane was just a dream also.............

For Dan,
Here is a photo of a four bladed prop on a Vickers Vimy. It is from a recen
t
isit to the RAF Museum in London.
It is a beautifully carved prop, so maybe it will motivate you. I would lov
e to
ee it if you ever decide to do one.

Understood. I would assume then that drilling a hole through the stru for an eye
bolt is not a good idea either? If true, then I will try making staps to wrap
around the strut to attach the jury to.

Here are a couple of photos I found of my AL struts. Thought I would throw
them out there in case they might help somebody.

| Subject: | Re: West Coast Gathering |
Hey Guys,
I just got back from LA last night and headed back out on Tuesday to
Tulsa. While in LA I got a chance to Meet Scott Liefeld, Nice guy been Pieter
since 1992. We hung out over lunch on Wednesday he was nice enough to share
his build book from he and his dad in 1992 and the rebuild.
Nice guy , great pics. He's been a Pieter for quite some time and just
discovered the board, I had a great trip and a real pleasure meting and talking
Piet with him. If you get into LA and would really like to have a nice
meting with a serious Piet guy get in touch with Scott. You will be glad you
did.
Scott, thanks for the hospitality and the tour. I really enjoyed it. I only
wish a had a magnet in my pocket. BTW we toured Scots work place, its a
Piet builders dream to spend a month there building Piet Parts.
John

That's one handsome fellow. And he's got a great first name!
;-)
Say, where did you get that spiffy helmet? I don't like mine very much
- it sits too high on my head and isn't snug around my forehead.
Thanks,
Dan
