Subject: | Re: Update and tailskid operations |
Jeff,
Welcome to the world of brakeless, tailskid flying. You will find that
your airplane handles landing and taxiing like most any other tailwheel
equipped aircraft with a few exceptions.
1. Skidplate wear - Dan mentioned the drill rod. This works great.
Initially a piece of UHMW was installed as the wearplate. This wore out
after a couple of months. Then a couple of carbide cutting inserts were
brazed onto the skidplate. These worked fantastic but would dig deep
scratches on any hard surface I taxiied across. The solution is a piece
of 3/8" diameter X 3" long piece of tungsten carbide drill rod brazed
across the aft end of the skid plate. Minimal scratching on hard
surfaces and will likely last the life of the airplane.
2. Taxiing with a tailwind - This is the biggest challenge with a skid.
Any taxiing with a tailwind greater than 10 - 12 mph requires assistance
by someone hanging onto a lift strut and helping to steer the airplane.
3. Taxiing on pavement - The airplane can be difficult to steer
accurately and you may find it difficult to slow down. I always have my
seatbelt unbuckled when taxiing on pavement so I can jump out quickly if
needed. Be ready to kill the mag switch and don't taxi behind someone if
the taxiway slopes downhill.
4. Landing or taxiing on a slope - Use caution when doing so, the
tailskid will try to slide downhill. This is especially important when
landing on grass adjacent to a paved runway where the grass may slope
away from the pavement. If your tailskid slides downhill in this
situation you may find yourself heading towards the pavement.
Also, I NEVER land on a runway when airplanes are parked adjacent to it.
This can often be the case at busy fly-ins with minimal parking space.
The risk of groundlooping into a parked airplane isn't worth it. Go
early or go elsewhere, and carry good insurance.
5. Flight planning - When planning a flight to an unfamiliar airport
don't assume there will be usable grass. Quite often there is usable
grass next to the runway but check ahead with the airport operator and
have a usable alternate in mind. Google Earth is a great tool for
checking out airports but it doesn't always give good detail like
ditches and hazards hidden in the grass.
6. Cool factor - As if a Pietenpol isn't cool enough, the skid will set
you apart.

Very nice Jeff!- I like the look of the exterior aileron cables/pulleys.
- It fits the over-all look of your plane nicely.
Question, how did you form the very front "nose" part of the engine cowling
?- I would like a look similar to that, but am not sure how to form it. T
hanks.

Subject: | Re: First run of Corvair on Pietenpol |
Kevin's exhaust stacks gave me the idea for mine. And I figure there's lots of
clean air flowing around the fuselage at 80 mph (well, maybe not that fast)...
but that's my thinking. In fact, I don't remember smelling the exhaust at all
as I stood in the prop wash.
The exhausts are made from the standard Corvair "U" pipe I ordered from Clark's.
I cut it in half, turned one half 180 degrees and welded it back into an "S"
shape. I sliced the end parallel to the airflow and put in some louvres per
Tony B. Simple and easy, which I like both, and sort of retro.
I'll keep this in mind, however, and when she finally takes to the air it will
be a checklist item I will mark off or change.
Besides, Kevin has been one of my hero for years now, and still is. So, I will
take the liberty to copy any of FBG's attributes and future improvements, unless
Kevin says otherwise.

Crew, I have completed a mag. overhaul and am wanting to attach it to the e

at 30 deg. BTDC.
The mag. I want to install has an impulse coupler and will go in the left s
ide mag. opening.- I am not sure at what orientation/rotation the mag. it
self needs to be in when I bolt it to the engine.-- I would imagine one
gear tooth off in either direction in relation to the engine gear would ca
use problems.
Thanks up front.

I was just shooting my mouth off about something I have no direct experience with

not sure it would last long at all but i thought i would try a couple of replaceable

Thanks for the kind words..
it is green for sure... really dark green.. but green.
and the wing is a creamy tan... my wife says it looks the same color as the Birch
ply that was all over the plane.
I actually don't have the inspection scheduled yet..I was hoping to get an FAA
guy to come over if i can talk one into it.. they are close and free.
The nose bowl is kinda funny...i made one like the plans then was throwing away
some old junk when i noticed one of those floor lamps the points up... the reflector
after some trimming worked perfect for a nose.
i heard about the lid to a wok being used the same way too.

No wonder Jeff's plane looked so good. So we have the good guys (the Green

Need to dispel this rumor. Jeff's airplane is actually dark green. But there
IS another black and yellow copy-job about to make it's debut. I don't want
to mention any names, but the initials are G.R.

Subject: | How to remove Latex paint from fabric |
Before anything else, Jeff: congratulation for the Piet!!!, for me, here far away
from all those hand made flaying machines, its a .... pleasure?/confort?..
I do not know how to said it.. see came out one after anoher with success.
Now my little add..
Few months ago I ask how to make certain repair in the rudder.. I install a wrong
horn on it, cover the rudder, and paint it with latex to learn, and see how
latex work, later I discover the mistake... and the best answer I had was "cut,
replace it and learn how to do it"...
OK, I am in the process.. I do not care to cut, and replace it, the problem for
me was the paint. How can I go to the fabric without damage it with the sand
paper?... I do not like that idea.. but if there is no other?.. I ask in paint
houses if there is anything to remove the paint chemicaly.. the answer was nothing,
so sand?.. so today I was in the garage doing others things and I saw
a bottle of Tolueno that I use to clean the brushes I use to apply contac cement.
and I try with it.. incredibel.. look this pictures here
http://vgmk1.blogspot.com/2012/09/como-arreglar-un-agujero-y-rejadura-en.html
the fabric is like new.. without traces of the paint...
So, if you are working with latex paint remember, tolueno (in english may be TOLUEN?)

Well, this is perfect timing for me! I may be removing some latex (the hand painted
numbers) from my rudder....looks like this will do the job!
Also, I didn't like the way the latex worked on aluminum cowling and found that
acetone or mineral spirits (that's all I've tried so far) worked fine to remove
it from aluminum.
But this looks better for fabric.

Jack did you order 2 of the same springs. If so I assume you has to modify one

Mario,
In english I believe it's toluene. Not sure if it's available like that or not
from typical retailers, but would be the active ingredient in "brush cleaners",
paint strippers and the like.
Not sure, but it also may be in a couple products commonly available here in the
states as "Goof Off" or "Oops", which are both capable of removing dried latex
paint.

Try normal paint stripper from the hardware store. That will take it off
just fine. Scrape the residue off with a sharp plastic scraper then wash
the remaining residue off.

Not that I ever plan on using latex on my airplane, however.....for
the guys who
are flying with latex, will be flying with latex or have done testing,
how does it hold up to auto or 100LL avgas?

we have a little stain from a leak that was in the fuel gauge, but it's not
too bad with 100LL, as long as you let it evaporate and don't wipe it whil
e it is wet.=C2- I don't know, but I would NOT want to spill auto gas on
it.

s who
are flying with latex, will be flying with latex or have done testing, how

Subject: | Re: How to remove Latex paint from fabric |
I used MEK to take off paint to patch the wing when a piece of aluminum gut
ter fell on it a few years ago it worked great.- The MEK took it right do
wn to bare fabric in about a minute, then I washed the fabric with soap and
water, applied the patch, and repainted.- It worked great.

Try normal paint stripper from the hardware store.- That will take it off
just fine.- Scrape the residue off with a sharp plastic scraper then was
h the remaining residue off.

I've spilled auto gas around the filler neck, sometimes it runs, sometimes
stains. Someday I might need to re-cover the center section. It has never
made me decide to not go flying.

She is a beauty, on a sustained climb you might need a steam vent from the top,

This should fix the Pal-Item link:
http://www.pal-item.com/videonetwork/1836243670001/Model-T-Ford-Club-of-America-welcomes-new-addition
The "check" portions of the first link shunt you to a subscriber popup,
then just to the homepage if you don't want to register. After the ad the
video should play with the above link
