Yeah, I know the feeling Shad. I'm about to go for my CFII flight test, but
I don't have an airplane with any instruments in it.

Great to hear you are getting some time in. You guys sure have flown that
thing a lot. I got a little time in last night just before sunset. Was
really beautiful in Ohio . You need to get skis! Heck with the cold air.
It's really not that bad. Kind of a state of mind. Ha! Maybe a stupid
state of mind! I've had mine on skis each winter for the past 5 years. I
can't wait! There's nothing like it.

Jack, after your CFII test I would like to speak to you about the process of becoming
a CFII. I have my Advanced Ground Instructor rating and would like to get
my instrument ticket next (along with instrument Ground Instructor), then my
commercial followed by my CFI and then CFII.
I would like to be prepared to be a flight instructor as my "retirement" career.
Blue Skies,

too cold OT Luscombe
Shad, if you are really looking for a Luscombe, A friend of mine (Vern Foster)
has his for sale.
If I remember correctly, his is a 1939 Luscombe (the LSA) . I don't know the hours,
but I know it is is great shape and he wants under $20,000.
I hope to take the Colorado Pilots Association Mountain Flying course from Vern
this next spring. He is 95 and started flying in 1939. He has forgotten more
about flying than I will ever know.
Blue Skies,
Steve D

Steve,
Another good mountain flying instructor is Larry Duane. He's the
flight instructor that worked with my son through to his ASEL in our
Pacer. Here's Larry's website:
http://www.coloradobackcountryfliers.com. He's based out of Longmont,
Colorado, which is where our hangar and Pietenpol project are located.
Cheers, Ken

Scott,
Thanks for the info; like you said wonder if the Cont. was tampered with over the
years.
wow! what a nose! looks like you can really stretch your legs in there... did he
have a gas tank behind the engine then?
We have the room for it, but really after flying the Piet for an 1hr I'd like to
land... if you know what I mean.
Ours have a C-65 and it already seems like plenty of power, I guess if you are
close to the mountains it's always welcomed!
I like you crop duster advise,
take care,

Hi Peter,
I don't remember if that piet had a nose tank. I have a tank in the nose (10 Gal)
and one in the center section(12.5Gal). The one in the nose is from an Opal
Kadet car and the one in the center section is a Cessna 140 wing tank. I have
a C-85 and burn between 5 and 5.9 GPH depending on how I have the plane loaded.
The plane will fly longer than my backside will. But it is still nice
to have the extra range when needed.

Hi Don
We had a beautiful day yesterday and I also got out for an hour. I went
over a Ski area to the north and saw a pretty good pile of snow on the
hills. All together just a wonderful day.

Group,
Has anyone had any experience with a Franklin 65hp? There is one for
sale on the field for $200, just wondering if it's a $200 boat anchor.

Hi Brian
Keep in mind - in SLC 65 horses are going to be pretty anemic.
I used to fly a Cessna 140 out of SLC #1 with a C-75 and in the summer we'd
be doing well to clear the power lines up by Skypark.
My 2 cents

As one of the less common 65HP engines out there parts are going to be more
difficult to find.....and at only $200, that would suggest that it is going
to need plenty of work to make it usable.....thusly far more expensive of a
proposition than more common options (small Continentals, Corvair, etc etc).
On the other hand, if you've got $200 burning a hole in you pocket, and
want a conversation piece for your hangar..... :P

The 65 Franklin is pretty much a boat anchor. It is pretty animec compared
to the A-65. Parts have not been made in a lot of years. Franklins are now
made in Europe and parts for new engines are difficult to get.

I agree with all the above. Buy it if you want to make a piece of furniture out

I couldn't even stay current at that rate. We used to have to get 4 hrs

The 65hp Franklin was a 4 cyl engine made in the 1940s. It was a very
smooth runing and quiet, but less powerful than the Cont 65. Later in the
1960 s Franklin made a 2 cyl 60 hp eng that was used in a Champion
aircraft. Brad Williams

Don, thank you for the update on Mehlin Smith. My first ride in a
Pietenpol was a Model A powered red machine that I am quite sure Mehlin
owned at the time but was being flown by another gentleman when I got my
ride. It was a noisy, windy, wonderful experience. I think of it often
as I struggle to make some progress on my very slow project.
