We should corner Jack and see what he uses for his seat cushion - my

I know there was some discussion of a pull scale being brought to the big gathering.
did anyone ever get around to doing a comparison on the various planes with
it? that will be a fun and interesting article to read about I hope. I know
there was too much fun being had to devote a lot of time to it but just wondering.

That would have been an interesting project, Raymond, but never happened.
The scales are now firmly in my possession (even if temporary), and I am
awaiting an appropriate time to run my flying contraption outside and do a
full throttle run-up (wife needs to be gone!). I don't know much about prop
thrust, and what it means in a test like this, but I am looking for
somewhere between 250-290 lbs.

Gary, Although it would be a pleasure to meet your bride when I visit, if
she's not there and you haven't done a full-throttle run-up, I'd be glad to
assist. Your neighbors will complain about the noise but they'll get over it.

Subject: | Piet Reunion 2012? |
I know the reunion at Brodhead is usually always the weekend before Airventure
but because I need to plan a year in advance, I just want to verify that it is
indeed going to be the Thursday, Friday and Saturday of July 19, 20 and 21,
2012. Because with a little luck and spousal cooperation, I'll be flying a brand
new Pietenpol up to Brodhead and then on to Oshkosh next year.
Can anyone verify this for me?

After hearing all your posts last week about Brodhead, I planned out the
trip on my I-fly 700 gps. Took off this morning and pointed the nose at
320 degrees. When I turned around I was only 14 hrs 15 min from being
there. Sure hope to make it next year

The one on Top Gear was the diesel vesion of the Tacoma/Hilux. Unfortunately

The photo of ZK-PRB shows a carb, so I suspect it is the venrable R-22

Curt (and others),
Well, that wasn't so bad. apparently, in N. Calif, the price for getting
one's wife to leave long enough to conduct full throttle run-ups in front of
the house is the cost of a new 24"+ monitor...which just goes to prove,
again, that everyone has their price! (your individual results may vary).
For those that do not know, Curt is a Southwest pilot from Flower Mound,
Texas, (I only recruit the best), and my Piet may never again have such a
high time pilot behind the stick! He is making the 1-hr trip from
Sacramento, during a lay-over.
Curt - this is not a 1-man job, and your help will be most appreciated!

HI Gary,
What do you suppose the cost of getting my next door neighbor to be gone would
be? He is the Santa Rosa police chief; most of my other neighbors are older and
can't hear anyway!
I wonder if Tom is a computer guru?

Well, Jim, I=99m no expert, but I am told that Police Chiefs come
at a higher pricepossibly more than a Piet builder could
afford. Maybe even more than an RV builder could afford. However, he
would never make it to Chief without developing a taste for scotch or
whiskey. A case of JD would do if he were a whisky drinker, but if
he=99s a scotch man, 1 bottle of =98Oban=99 Single
Malt Scotch would suffice. Jack Phillips will attest to that. Now you
know what goes on at =98The Cove.=99
Here=99s the good news, though.I=99m only doing a
full throttle run-up to test the pitch on my home made prop. You should
suffice with just a partial run-up

Subject: | I-Fly 700, was Brodhead Plans |
I have the GPS mounted via the suction cup provided to an aluminum plate
I fastened under the instrument panel. It is bright enough, as I have a
flop and not a cutout in my center section so its rarely in the sun. I
haven't played with an Anywhere Maps GPS, but I think the price of the
I-Fly is hard to beat. Of course you could argue that I won't be doing
all that many cross-countries, but handling a sectional in a Pietenpol
ain't much fun either.

Dave, I talked to Gary about a week before Brodhead. He said It was too hot for
him this year. A lot of folks at Brodhead ask about him. He is almost a legend
there as the first year he went there, think it was 1991, he showed up about
10PM on his motor cycle from N Carolina and refused to be shown where to camp
until he saw a Pietenpol in person. I guess the Brodhead folks thought that was
kind of cool.
I heard your North End cook out was great.
