Subject: | fungicide anyone? |
reading my eaa "wood aircraft building techniques". was wondering if builders are
using a fungicide prior to varnishing? i live in south florida, so getting
caught in a shower while flying or on the ground is very possible. ounce of prevention
and all. if so, what product and where to purchase? thanks; Paul

Subject: | Re: Wing perimeter tapes |
Rick, I might not really understand your problem but I suggest you check out
the Stewart video on putting perimeter tapes on an elevator where 3-inch
tape and 2-inch tape come together. Maybe that will give you an idea on
joining 4-inch and 3-inch tapes. Chuck

Dan I have some oatmeal cartons laying around I could send you that might work
for a gap seal. Theyre Quaker Oats though and the box is of the modern design
so on second thought Could probably find some original ones on Ebay though.
All kidding aside, Im going to make two balsa half rounds or corner moldings and
glue them in there with the faces along the axis which should allow a pretty
tight seal.
Thanks for all the ideas as usual!

If you've ever seen pictures of Mike, it's hard to tell that he weighs
that much, but maybe it's the loose-fitting tee shirts that he wears. Or
maybe he meant that his *airplane's* empty weight is 632? ;o)
Scout came in with an empty weight of 636 when I did the new W&B after
swapping in the A75 engine and that's with three quarts of oil in the sump.
No center section cutout... my airplane has a hinged flop.
Like "Four-Eight-Mike-Charlie", "Four-One-Charlie-Charlie" stalls so low
down on the airspeed indicator arc that I know the reading can't possibly
be accurate. Pitot is out on the starboard side jury strut, just down
from the wing leading edge, so it's well out of the propwash. The point
is, build it light and it will fly great, stall at a very slow airspeed
with good controllability, and you'll love flying it.

sun comes up and the fog lifts hopefully by 7 am.- I should be able to m
ake Brodhead by 4-5 pm if storms don't get in the way.- I am spending the

Vernon to a Monroe muffler shop to get some pipe, I am waiting for them to
call me back so I can go get it and get to cutting, and welding.

P.S. Is anyone flying up to Barber Field for the taylorcraft fly-in this sa

Hello guys, I have a question about the exaust tubing.- I wasted $20 on t
he tubing I just bought.- The muffler shop used there tube bender and of
course it reduced the O.D. of the pipe right where it will fit into the exa
ust flange.- It is also thick enough to use for a landing gear leg.- Do
es anyone here know if mandral bends (like the "J" bends that Jegs Racing s
ells for race car header pipes) would have a consistant-O.D. throughout t
he bend.- I just need a 45deg with a 18in tail pipe, the flange is welded
right at the 45.- With the lack of walk in stores, and everything being
online shopping these days it makes these "easy" projects a pain in the kee
ster.- I will probobaly spend $60 on materials, and use $15 worth.-

p.s. This will probably keep me from making the T-craft fly-in this sat.-
I will be busy trying to get a new exaust made for brodhead, and I have to

I forgot to add one technical bit about 41CC... it has the "Improved" fuselage
(13'-7"), so it is as much as 10" shorter than the "long" fuselage versions.
The 1932 Flying & Glider Manual fuselage is 13'-5" long and the added 2" between
"1932" and "Improved" are essentially in the first bay aft of the firewall.
I think it's probably easier to build them lighter when they have the shorter
fuselages.
Mikee, you've probably answered this question hundreds of times, but which fuselage
length does your airplane have?

I just sat down to read my BPA Newsletter and among lots of other good stuff, noticed
Jake's nifty push block that rides on the rip fence of your table saw and
keeps fingers clear. I get the gist of it, but Jake- if you have any better
photos of it, please point us to them. There seem to be lots of little customizations
on the thing but the pictures in the Newsletter aren't detailed enough
to see what they are.

Subject: | Exaust question?? |
Thanks Gary, I just blew $80 at Jegs.com.=C2- I ordered spares in case I
fowl up the 1st attempt.=C2- The exaust will be the least in the factors
of me making brodhead (I Hope).=C2- If it gets here I might be able to ge
t it done friday night.=C2- The thing that sucks is the wharehouse for Je
gs is at the end of the runway where we test flew NX92GB, but they have to
fedex the orders, can't pick them up in person.=C2- 18 gauge is the light
est they have so add another pound to your latest Pietenpol Newsletter for
Piet #4 in William Wynne's article.=C2- I am hoping to be west bound and
down on July 19.=C2- I think I will go out and make a top secret hidden g
ps mount that can be easily hidden from Dan Helsper, and Larry Williams.=C2
- But in all honesty this will be the 1st time I have flown=C2-TO Brodh
ead using GPS.=C2- I have Dad's old 2001 Garmin road GPS, I just have to
program in all the cooridates of the airports.=C2- So, to all the "Purest
s" We have a Corvair, 2 way handheld,
latex paint, electric start,=C2-but we still use 1929 navigation system
(March 1978 revision).=C2- All jokes and pokes aside I am looking forward
to seeing Y'all in a couple weeks.

=C2-
Hello guys, I have a question about the exaust tubing.=C2- I wasted $20 o
n the tubing I just bought.=C2- The muffler shop used there tube bender a
nd of course it reduced the O.D. of the pipe right where it will fit into t
he exaust flange.=C2- It is also thick enough to use for a landing gear l
eg.=C2- Does anyone here know if mandral bends (like the "J" bends that J
egs Racing sells for race car header pipes) would have a consistant=C2-O.
D. throughout the bend.=C2- I just need a 45deg with a 18in tail pipe, th
e flange is welded right at the 45.=C2- With the lack of walk in stores,
and everything being online shopping these days it makes these "easy" proje
cts a pain in the keester.=C2- I will probobaly spend $60 on materials, a
nd use $15 worth.=C2-
=C2-

=C2-
p.s. This will probably keep me from making the T-craft fly-in this sat.=C2
- I will be busy trying to get a new exaust made for brodhead, and I have
to work the following weekend. =C2- =C2- =C2-http://www.matronics.co
