    Hey. I'm not about to copy any of Finch's book without his permission. But the book does have some info on removing the engine from a car.

    I have the book on order and it has not arrived. Seeing 2 pages before I go look at the engine I thought would be a help. I have also ordered the junkyard primer, I think it is called. I already have the green shop manual. -------- Semper Fi, Terry Hand Athens, GA Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=385686#385686

    Subject: Re: reducing the wingspan - Big Piet update
    Hi Greg I guess I was refering to both, getting into the cockpit is easier and the overall performance has been better too. I cant tell how much because I now have 110 hp vs 65 hp in the past. I do know that I tested this plane to 1250 lbs groos and it flew just fine.

Are you referring to getting in and out of cockpit, or flight performance? I made Mtn Piet center section 36 inches instead of 29. This was based on Bill Rewey's recommendation. I love the look of the trailing edge cut-out. Although it was quite a woodworking challenge, it was worth the effort.

He has built several airplanes and Piets. We considered all his mod suggestions while we were drawing plans for the Big Piets. After some research, we ended up not doing any of the mods. We did in fact make the center section a lot wider. Bruce's plane (the blue and white one in the Piet-n-pile at Sun n Fun's Tornado Days) is now flying with Piper Colt wings. We modified the wings by taking off the rounded tips, adding a few ribs to the ends and making flat wingtips to look like a Piet wing. We are still tweaking the horiz incidence, washout and other stuff. First indications are that it will be faster than the other Big Piets. Bruce did put in Piper's recommended amount of dihedral, and it looks different. Frank's Big Piet (red and silver that ended up on top of the Piet n Pile) has been flying for some time now and everything is fine. Gardiner's Pietenpol (bottom of the pile) is just a few weeks away from rebirth. We are flying down to his place next week and go over the plane with a fine toothed comb.

    From: "aerocarjake" <flight.jake@gmail.com>
    Thanks for all these posts.... I plan to make my center section wider so I can carry more fuel in a enter-section tank, but it sounds like the slightly longer wingspan would not hurt either. (I had considered trimming a bay from each wing to keep the wingspan more stock.....?!?!). Working on the walking beam in the shop today after I drive the "first teacher in space" to an event at the Museum of Flight.... tough duty... -------- Jake Schultz - curator, Newport Way Air Museum (OK, it's just my home) Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=385705#385705

    From: "Mark Roberts" <mark.rbrts1@gmail.com>
    A friend of mine has the dealership rights to California for the Sport Cruiser LSA and asked me to help him sell some. I am in the midst of the 4th lay off in 7 years, so I figured what the heck?! We went flying today so I could experience the plane, and after not being behind the controls for 4 years, it sure felt great. I wish I was further along on my Piet, as it is hard to be stressed and worried at 4500 feet looking down on God's green earth! So glad to hear Douwe is back in the air with his beautiful airplane! The Sport Cruiser is one very nice plane, and I hope to get more time in one as time goes on. But you can't get bugs in your teeth with that big canopy! Need some fresh air for that... :) Not a substitute for an open cockpit! Read this topic online here: http://forums.matronics.com/viewtopic.php?p=385709#385709
