Okay, this might lead to another dead horse beating, especially from the
purists out there, but here goes.
On the fin, I'd like to paint something like "Pietenpol Air Camper" and a
date either ahead of it ( 19?? Pietenpol Air Camper) or after it with a
saying like "Pietenpol Air Camper since 19??" to help people know what it
is.
My question is, and I understand this might be a matter of opinion. what
year should I use??
First true "Air Camper" 626 seems to have flown in 1929, plans were drawn in
32 I believe? Revised in 34??
I kind of lean towards 1929 myself.

1929 is recognized as the first year an Air Camper flew. Anything after
that is just a revision of the original.

As I am building I am wondering if anyone has built in camera mounts at strategic
locations for filming flights. Simple threaded studs could protude from several
locations of the aircraft to easily attach a video camera.

As a reminder - the BPA generously provides nametags. Just check in at the friendly
BPA booth upon arrival at the airport, and they'll give you a nametag.
While you're there, you might as well renew your subscription to the BPA newsletter.
If you're a member of the BPA, you're also eligible for the free raffle

Douwe,
Although not a purist when I talk about the Piet design and my build I alway
s explain it as a 1929 design aircraft by Bernard Pietenpol. Then I tell the
story of each one being a hand made custom aircraft. Because if I call it a
home built the think of bed sheets and lawn chairs or if I call it an exper
imental aircraft they conjure up visions of some Rube Goldberg contraption f
lailing and beating itself to destruction.

Do not archive I am not a purist? i'm a designer concentrate on the design!

I fully expect to reveal an artistic rendition of my air camper color scheme.
Which like most others, has been top secret at least up until the great reveal
next month. I hope you will join me in that historic event.
Private showings may be available following the reveal.

Ray, the first sky scout (10718) was built in 1931 if we are to believe the data
plate and it belonged to Orrin Hoopman. Wiki says 1933... wrong again.

I say, "Look on your plans." If they say 1937, as mine do, then I'm building
a 1937 Pietenpol. How could it be anything different? If yours says 1927,
then that's what you're building...

Thanks, Mark. I know the story behind the Sky Scout, so I knew it was later
than the AirCamper. Guess I will have a fairly unique plane! All to plans,
so far.

I thought mine said 1934. And I didn't know the Corvair existed in 1937.
The A65 Continental was designed in 1936 and was in production by 1938, but
I don't think the Corvair came into being until 1959.

I say, "Look on your plans." If they say 1937, as mine do, then I'm building
a 1937 Pietenpol. How could it be anything different? If yours says 1927,
then that's what you're building...

Subject: | NX7229R Flies again! |
After major repairs to the fuselage, NX7229R put .75 hours on the Tach
today. Annual was signed Thursday morning. Today, three high speed runs
down the runway, she wanted to fly, but I only lifted the tail. Stopped to
see if anythin in the controls had shifted. Called in a ground crew next
and committed to the air for a lap around the patch. That worked out so
nicely that I had to do it again....

Hmmm... why did you paint "Travel Air" on the fin of your Pietenpol, Gene? That's
confusing.

I've got "Travel Air" in big letters on the fin and still get "what is it,
a Stearman?" all the time.
