Well guys, I pulled the prop of the piet and put on the secret wepon vortel
ator tape.- I sanded the backs of the prop blades and will re-paint and s
tatic balance the prop tomorrow.- I suspect with the vortilator tape and
a corvair i should get at least Mach 0.78.- If you think you hear a sonic
boom, it is probably just my crank slapping the sides of the crankcase.-
I just had to try out this 30 dollar gimmick, Dad bought it almost a year
ago, so I should have time to fly a couple hrs with this "Miricale Tape", b
efore blasting off for Brodhead.

I'm planning to leave Lebanon TN sometime Thursday, fly part way and find a nice,
soft hotel bed Thursday night. So plan to be in by noon on Friday, provided
I don't turn my sectional upside down and wind up in L.A. (that's lower Alabama
btw).

Scotty,
I think you'll find that most builders that have raised the rear turtledeck, also
raised the forward decking by a similar amount (or maybe slightly less). As
long as you keep the changes small, they will be hard to detect visually, but
may make the plane fit you better (assuming you're above average in height.)

Dan,
Excellent question. I have been informed that I will no longer be performing full
power run-ups at home (at least while my wife is there). I ran it enough to
know that the static full power rpm is about 3100. That's important for Corvairs,
and I'll confirm with WW at Brodhead that the static is OK. I would love
to hook up some fish scales to that tree, though!

It will pull a ton! I had Dad's piet tied to a Allis Chalmers WD45

Excellent question. I have been informed that I will no longer be
performing full power run-ups at home (at least while my wife is there).
I ran it enough to know that the static full power rpm is about 3100.

Looks like it is going to be pretty windy on wednesday afternoon.- I have
been checking the forcast, and chicago area is calling for SSW17mph with g
ust into the 30's by early afternoon.- That will slow me down!- It will
make me work to keep the airplane in one piece as well.- I guess I will
just have to play it by ear, if it gets too bad I will wait untill thursday
to leave.- It's gonna be hotter than hell's furnace as well.

Gary,
I have an industrial fish scale for you to use. I can bring it to Brodhead
and give it to you to use. Can you take it back on the airplane? I only us
ed it once, to check my "thrust".
after I carved my prop. My result was 260 lbs thrust. You can get a good id
ea how yours is performing if you can use it. Let me know.

Weather permitting, N30PP will be there as well. Leaving Wednesday night from Marshalltown,
Iowa - overnighting in Manchester, Iowa with family - then Thursday
morning showing up in Brodhead. If I could only figure out how to fit my air-conditioner
and generator for the tent in the GN - I'd be a much happy camper...

Hi,
Per your requests I will be bringing a guest with me to Brodhead on Saturday.
She is a 20 year old single female named Talia (pic attached) and she would love
to fly in a Pietenpol.
Is anyone willing to help her into the front cockpit of their Pietenpol and take
this young lady (cough! cough!) flying?
Glenn

Gary,
I have an industrial fish scale for you to use. I can bring it to
Brodhead and give it to you to use. Can you take it back on the
airplane? I only used it once, to check my "thrust".
after I carved my prop. My result was 260 lbs thrust. You can get a good
idea how yours is performing if you can use it. Let me know.

It will pull a ton! I had Dad's piet tied to a Allis Chalmers WD45
(aprox 6000lbs) and I forgot to put the tractor in gear, the coevair
moved it about a foot. But It still only cruises at 80mph.

Dan,
Excellent question. I have been informed that I will no longer be
performing full power run-ups at home (at least while my wife is there).
I ran it enough to know that the static full power rpm is about 3100.
That's important for Corvairs, and I'll confirm with WW at Brodhead that
the static is OK. I would love to hook up some fish scales to that tree,
though!

More to the point - how much wind does it make? Do you have access to a
big spring scale you can tie to the tail and see how much pull it
produces?
