Thought I would invite him and his wife to a BBQ and then show him what I will be d oing and enlist his help. A little scotch might be just the thing to convin ce him. I wondered what all the hooting and hollaring over there in the cove was ab out. Jack must let his hair down and have had some good crank snapping comm ents. Cheers and good luck with the full power runup.

We do have really good police presence in our neighborhood so might have to have a BBQ that is more inclusive as my son-in-law is a recently retired f ireman and several other neighbors are also fireman or policemen. Might get them to block off the street for some=C2- taxi tests;=C2- or drag race their cop cars!

Enjoy Jim in Pryor ________________________________ Message 4 _____________________________________ Time: 11:52:46 AM PST US Subject: Pietenpol-List: Re: Brodhead video From: "skellytown flyer" Thanks to you and the other guys that posted videos Jim- it is sure great to be able to almost be there with those videos.I was there twice years back but not sure just when I will be able to make the trip again.it brings back great memories. I guess I was off the mark once again with my question about the thrust - when I saw the post about bringing the scales to the gathering I wrongly assumed there were plans to do some testing and see how the various engine/ prop combos were comparing. while many Piets were on-site. that could be very educational .Raymond. do not archive Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=348082#348082 ________________________________ Message 5 _____________________________________ Time: 01:28:51 PM PST US From: Lawrence Williams Subject: Pietenpol-List: off topic queries Everybody: Larry is home from his trip to Brodhead. Piet did great, Ford did great, Larry did great. All are glad to be home again!! Gary Bell: please email me off line re: teardrops. Rick Schreibner: please email me off line re: wood finishing. Thanks to you all for another wonderful reunion at Brodhead. Got to see all of you previous friends getting older and met some nice new friends.Adventures on the road are still to be had and the Piet is the perfect vehicle in which to have them. I was once again introduced to the real America and it's inhabitants. Kindnesses were extended to me from many sources as a matter of course. It's always nice to reconnect with good people and realize what a bogus outlook I get watching the TV. Ah-h-h-h, I am rejuvenated and it makes me feel good all over.

Just a personal observation- if TV is giving you a bogus outlook on life, watch less TV and go fly more often. There's always time for TV on bad weather days or in the winter. do not archive -------- Billy McCaskill Urbana, IL tail section almost done, starting on ribs soon Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=348120#348120 ________________________________ Message 10 ____________________________________ Time: 10:58:11 PM PST US Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Progress From: mark lee That is a nice looking plane.What size are those wheels?
