    Do the same aircraft grade requirements apply to the ash that is used in the floor braces? Can sitka spruce be used here? I'm having a tough time finding quartersawn ash with the required 6 annual rings per inch. -------- John Francis Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=374350#374350

    Subject: Ash specs
    The answers to your question are "No" and "No". Ash does not (and cannot) be held to the same requirement for annual growth rings as it is a different species and family from Spruce. But you want to use Ash where specified, even though it is heavy, because it is very strong and among all the woods it has the best "shock-absorbing" ability (which is why it is the wood of choice for baseball bats). Notice that the locations where Ash is specified - landing gear load zones and engine mounts - are areas that receive shock loading. One other pleasant characteristic of Ash is that it simply doesn't splinter and sands very smooth - which is why the other big use for Ash is in gymnastic parallel bars. Other woods might splinter and hurt the hands of the gymnast. Just buy Ash with the straightest grain you can find and you'll be fine.

    As I recall (and I no longer have my jig. I think Steve Chase has it now), it has 9/16" right offset. I've got to make a run up to the lake this weekend, moving my RV-10 project. If I have time, I'll pull the cowling on the Pietenpol and measure it.

    Thanks Jack. The plans call out 9/16" offset to get the down thrust, so I w as trying to be in that ball park for the right thrust as well.- (along w ith the itell. Mike C. gave me from what he recalls doing.)- My big conce rn is having the mounting pads so far out of plane that the flat faced engi ne bosses won't sit correctly on the mount. (With down and right thrust, al l four mount pads are at different heights.) Michael Perez =0APietenpol HINT Videos =0AKaretaker Aero =0Awww.karetakeraero.com =0A

I plan on 3/4 stock with 1/8 inch lamination on each side.

    I've just purchased a pair of Eye Brows from Czechoslovakia. Started creating templates but had plenty of other jobs. They seem very well made and include a spare metal template kit. Just fitting them at the moment. Price was 199 Euro's for the Set, about $245.00. Carriage and packing charges are on top and here in Europe I had to pay Value Added Tax. The whole lot delivered by UPS to me at a cost of $385.00 Take a look: http://www.falconaircraft.cz/inzerce/inzerat/piper-j3-cub-l4-baffle-cowlin g-continental-engines-c65-c85-c90-0-200a I dealt with a guy called Marek Vala.

    I'd heard word-of-mouth at SNF that the recommended scarfing slope in AC 43-13 (Chapter 1, somewhere around page 15) had increased to 15 to 1.

    Always been 15 to 1. Gary Sent on the Sprint Now Network from my BlackBerry -----Original Message----- From: Jim Ash <ashcan@earthlink.net> Sender: owner-pietenpol-list-server@matronics.com I'd heard word-of-mouth at SNF that the recommended scarfing slope in AC 43-13 (Chapter 1, somewhere around page 15) had increased to 15 to 1. I don't remember what it used to be, or if that was a line just to sucker me in, but you might want to check it out just in case.

    No it hasn't. It WAS 12 to 1=2C with 10 to 1 minimum. New 43.13 went to 1 5 to 1.
