Smear them with enough icecream and maybe you
won't have too.....
So, anyway, I couldn't find wire wheels around here
for love or money. Then I realized that since I plan
on covering the things what's inside don't matter!
All I can say is thank God I actually bought that
combo lathe/mill on sale for $1000 even though it
cut seriously into the ole budget. It somehow magicaly
made a pair of hub extensions and two sets of
flanged bronze bushings. Many other things too!
Clif
None yet, will let u know when I impregnate them...

Agreed. I too have used the lathe and mill for numerous pieces parts. Great
tools to own/have access to.

Mike,
I will be dropping in as a ground pounder Saturday. Will be driving in with
a friend in his 1927 Bugatti (Replica). Are you planning on flying in?

I'm driving in. No place close to be able to launch my paraglider to be able to
fly in!Ground pounding ought to be fun there. Nice and warm. I got back into
that a little bit after I moved to Utah, but couldn't stand the cold here.

Thanks Bryan, I've put your number in my phone book now. My number is 801-879-7124,
so you'll know who from Utah is calling when I call! I plan to leave SLC
this afternoon, shortly after lunch. I plan to be at the fly in in time to
make the ultralight forum at noon tomorrow.

I look forward to seeing you. I am an old trike scum myself. Had a Sabre dealership
and ran a flight school and sales out of Gila Bend Airport. The old owner
of Sabre is a still good friend.
Of coarse "Paragliders", now that is just plain crazy!! : )
See ya,
Bryan

Kevin,
How many FORMAL aircraft training programs were under your belt before you
were comfortable with those landings?

I looked, but did not locate all the pictures I am looking for. I only have
about 15,000 to go through. I might go out to the airport and take some new
ones, but am leaving for New Orleans in a couple of hours. I'll have to do
it when I get back

Stumbled across these photos of a nice looking Pietenpol that's hanging in the
Deke Slayton Museum, in Sparta, Wisconsin. Looks like all wooden struts. Very
nice.

Found this link on the UK Pietenpol Club Facebook page. Features a brief interview
with List member Graham Hewitt and the 1932 Sky Scout that was formerly based
at Brodhead (NX12941), and is now based in Australia (now VH-UCP).
http://www.facebook.com/video/video.php?v=273992849307763
also some nice photos;

Pretty neat.
There's also a brief bit of Graham flying the Piet in this video (starting at 5:32):

| Subject: | Re: Another museum Piet |
It is a beautiful plane. I started thinking about building a Piet in July 2010.
I also always wanted to stop in Sparta, Wisconsin to see the Deke Slayton museum
on my way back from Oshkosh, so I did. Hanging from the ceiling was that
pretty plane. I told my wife it was fate. Now, a little over a year later
I've got thirty two ribs made, a fuselage framed, and the tail feathers done and
hinged. It's been a good year. I'll try to post my own pics of the plane
from the museum when I get back from Ontario later this week.
Tom
