First off, I can only find photo links about half the time, so Jack, I'm
sure your new gear looks great!!
All painted sheet metal installed, fabricated new center section cross
bracing cables (were rods), fabricating forward baggage compartment (ala
Jack P) closure. Have to paint underbelly ply, ordered eyelets and will do
coamings soon. Guess I'll just glue up some foam cushions in case shapes
need to be changed before I sew coverings.
Hoping to head to the airport within a couple of weeks.

I have been to Jack's house and inspected his work and it is the way I would
want to build my Piet. Even though I have done some welding on the stuff
Jack always has the metal parts perfect before I start. Perfection on the
little things will end up being a perfect airplane.
Just my two cents worth.

RPM is OK but.......Cub gear and wings?? Don't know what you have but it isn't
a Pietenpol Air Camper.
Being an experimental airplane, you are left to decide what size prop etc. you
want to use. If the climb is OK and you are comfortable, go for it. There is a
recommended RPM for each of the Continental variations and you could find those
on the Continental website.

Hello Mike,
I also have a c-85 on mine. I like to fly a 72 x 42 prop. It seems to work very
good on these slow planes. 2350 - 2400 on climb out is not too bad. I turn
about 2425 on climb out with mine. They red line at 2575. I can reach that
at full throttle in straight & level flight.

Super-Duper Jack!
A Sig Kadet would have been my guess too. Never owned one, but have built and
flown many others. I guess it's the large wing tip angles that make it seem right...
I believe that the Kadet has been around since before I started in the
hobby in the 80s. Heck, even your R/C stuff looks great!

Subject: | Exaust stack,Brodhead |
Well, Fell'ers I might try Brodhead if I get the Thurs and following Monday
off.- Dad is probably going to sit this one out (even though he has the
cofortable sleeping quarters).- I have to weld up a new exaust for the r/
h side with a heat muff for the carb heat.- It has cracked once before, o
n our 1st time at Brodhead, that weld repair has reached it's end of its us
efull life.- Dad ordered the flanges, now I need to get the tubing.- Th
e current exaust is stainless, I was wondering how long anyone out there's
mild steel exausts are holding up.- I can weld mild steel, never tried mu
ch stainless (I got 8 hrs out of my last exaust repair using acetylene and
mild steel rod).- I might just pay the welder across the street to weld a
stainless stack with his TIG-after I cut out all the parts, but I am stu
born and like to do it myself.- Also wondering if anyone here has ceramic
oated there mild steel exaust pipes, and how expensive it is.

Hope to see you all in a few weeks,
Shad
