I'm like you, Shad. I wish my windshield was about 2" taller. I have cabin
heat, and a cover for the front cockpit so everything stays pretty warm
except my face. 20 minutes into a flight when the temps are in the 40's or
lower and I can't feel my face anymore.
Ought to be able to get the Piet in the air this weekend, though. Forecast
for Saturday and Sunday has clear skies and highs in the 70's.

them small, for the look I guess. When it gets cold, I am loosening the
shoulder harness and leaning forward as much as I can to stay warm. I have
flown a couple of times in snow flurries, just around the pattern, and flown
it down in the 20's once or twice. I am so bundled up in insulated
coveralls, ski mask and goggles, and leather jacket that I almost need to be
lifted into the airplane. That set-up gets me about 20-30 min. before I
need to land and jump in the fireplace to thaw out.

Shad,
If you can find some old wood water skis I think they would work great as
bottoms. If you wrap them in fiberglass like the wood canoe guys do, they'd
be almost indestructible.

Years ago I wore a silk Baliclava while riding my motorcycle in the Texas Panhandle
winters. Thin, light and warm covered my nose. It was split on the side of
the lower neck and tucked way down in my shirt front and back, preventing cold
air from getting in.
Just a thot.

This past Monday I started ground school at Sky Park here in Ohio. I had ta
ken ground school back in 1988 and I am learning that I" don't remember wha
t I thought I knew!"- This class offers spouses to attend for free, so my
wife is going with me. We go every Monday.- It has only been one class s
o far, but she seems very determined to stay with it; she plans on taking t
he written exam.
We were told to start flying ASAP. I believe we are both going to start CFI
lessons very soon. This facility has a few tail draggers and instructors,
so I, (we?)- are eager to get started.
My current plan is do get my LSA license now...it won't take as long and wi
ll cost less money. Later, if the need arises or the desire, I will pursue
the private license.- My thought,- since I own an LSA,- is along the
lines of "I only drive a car, no need to get a trucking license at this poi
nt."

Hi Dennis,
Mitchell sells mechanical tachs in both CW and CCW flavors. You can
also get a 90 degree angle drive that allows you to reverse the
rotation. So, there are a many ways to skin this cat.

I just reserved my N number (N 727CR) and spoke with an FAA employee in OKC. She
said that the FAA has not given out NX numbers for some time now, and that
i would have to talk to my local FSDO about putting NX on my airplane upon completion.
Just left a message with my FSDO, could be days before i hear back. Whats
the deal? is it a given that I can put NX on my plane to alleviate the EXPERIMENTAL
verbage? Paul

Paul,
The FAA does NOT issue an NX number. They only issue a straight N number. The
X can be put on the airplane to eliminate the Words Experimental provided that
the plane is more than 30 years old or is a replica of an aircraft more than
30 years old. The Piet is covered by both accounts. None of the aircraft registration
will indicate the X you are talking about. All paper work will only
show the N number. I am at work and don't have my FAR book with me so I cannot
quote which reg it is. Perhaps others on the list have it handy.

Mike I agree you need to start flying real soon and don't even think about a tri-gear.
Start in tailwheel and enjoy. When the time comes to fly the Piet it will
not be nearly as stressful. As to forgetting ground school think on this.
I did my ground school out of a Sanderson book at night..... in 1967. Until this
year I had not flown since 1993 and no tailwheel since 1980 or so. I am in
my own little ground school and have a scanner to listen to ATC. It helps to listen
so you have some idea what they will be telling you. Most of it does not
pertain to a Pietenpol. When they start giving out FL330 makes my Piet tremble!

If using the mechanical drive off the oil pump like Bernard did, which way

That's when you pull out a copy of the FARs and show him the relevant
passage. I had that passage all ready and highlighted, but the guy from the
FSDO that did my inspection was already familiar with it and had no
problems. If a DAR or FSDO guy tries to require something that is clearly
NOT reguired by the regs, you need to go to their supervisor.

Hey Mike,
One point to consider is that you need ten hours of dual for light sport, and twenty
for a private.
The ten hours you get for your light sport count towards the twenty ONLY IF you
get from from a CFI, rather than a light sport instructor. As far as I know,
the hourly rate for either instructor is the same, so there's no reason not to
make sure they will count later if needed. There is no statute of limitations
so to speak, once logged, it's good forever.
The tests are different, and about $150, but that's not nearly as big a deal as
an extra ten hours of plane and instructor rental, as I don't know of any instructors
that'll instruct in a Piet. While you're getting your ten hours, if
things are progressing well, get things like the night flight, control tower landings,
class B flying (not sure if that's required off the top of my head, but
seem to remember it...) out of the way. Again, once logged, you don't have
to repeat them, although you'll need something to burn up the additional ten
hours anyway (should you upgrade later), so it's not something to fret, just something
to keep in mind if you want to maximize efficiency.
The biggest problem with the light sport is that you'll need an endorsement to
bring the Piet out to Brodhead and for all the airports in between. It's a bit
of a pain for cross country flying, a thing designed OUT of the rating essentially.
Lastly, the best thing about light sport is the fact you don't need a medical.
You can downgrade to light sport on your own and likely will have already made
the trip to brodhead and back and have it in your logbook, making an endorsement
easier to obtain later on... if you know what I mean. You can go right back
to private by merely getting the appropriate physical and a BFR from a CFI
(rather than from a light sport instructor), the FAA isn't involved there either
(essentially).
All just food for thought, not sure how deep you delved into all of this.

C. A baliclava is a funny lookin hat often worn to rob banks.
BTW, I am a Southern boy. I just happen to be from the most Northern part of the
Grand Republic of Texas.
The Panhandle AKA West Texas or the Great American Desert, was invaded by Texas
Cowboys (many Confederate Vets) after the war of Northern Agression. Way up
North (North of Amarillo) the summers are hotter than hell and dry. The winters
are pretty mild unless a blue Norther blows in and that is when you find out
that there is nothing between Morse, Texas and the North Pole but a barbed wire
(pronounced BOB WAR) fence. Half of that fence is down. That is when we need
to know what a Baliclava is.
I have been told that my Texas Panhandle accent sounds very much like a Carolina
accent except for when I say any word with an i or y in the middle. Then we
drawl it even more. ie White writing paper is pronounciated Whyyyte ryyytin paper.
My wife is from North Texas (which is South and East of West Texas) and can
turn any single sylable word into a two syllable word.
Blue Skies,
Steve

I would have done the same as you but the VA won't pay for anything less than
the full blown Private Pilot Certification Course part 141.
I'll be flying out of Wright Brothers Airport just south of Dayton, OH in a Cessna
152. When I complete the course I will go to Red Stewart Field in Waynesville
for my tailwheel endorsement in either an Aeronca or Cub.
I start flying on the 19th of this month. Aircraft and instructor are booked!

Hi John isn't that interesting. I drove down all the way from Ontario and
got my PPL license at Red stewart in 24 days. The best place in the
world...... It's so laid back and very grass roots kind of flying. Start
you off in the good ole' J3 Cub or Aeronca. Solo that and then stick you in
the C-150 for the rest. I've landed at Wright Bro many of times. Flew and
soloed a total of 4 of their planes for less money then anywhere else. I
definately recommend them.....
All the best

Tools, I agree with and have recently read, (out of my new Private Pilot Ma
nual and during class), with everything you mentioned. The way I understand
it, Sky Park flight instructors are all CFIs. One or maybe two, will give
instruction in conventional gear AC, (not sure what type plane yet) I have
also read just a little on the LSA restrictions and required endorsements n
eeded to go 50 + miles our from home base, etc.- Thanks for your pointers
...I'll be looking for more details as we take more classes and get into th
e meat of ground school/flight time further. Day two of school is Monday, i
f I get the chance, I will inquire further on conventional gear training, t
ype of plane(s) used, etc.

FYI, the fee for the written ground school exam is $140.00.- The entire c
ourse including new pilot manual, flight computer, plotter, test book, FAR,
etc. was $150.00.

Another one to keep in mind is the recreational certificate. 15 hours dual 1
5 solo, does require a medical but, it's a 1 time cross country sign off.

Having flown into both Wright Brothers and Red Stewart fields on the way to
and from Brodhead in past years, I can heartily endorse Red Stewart as a
real airport, friendly to Pietenpols and other "real" airplanes, and have
nothing good to say about Wright Brothers, unless you're flying a jet.
That's the only place I've ever landed in my Pietenpol that didn't draw at
least one curious onlooker. They just seemed kind of bothered that I'd
clutter up their ramp with something that wasn't powered with a turbine.
I'd go out of my way to land at Red Stewart. Nice (grass) runway, cheap
avgas and friendly service.

I'm a little ahead of myself but have begun my flight school training as
well. I would have done the same as you but the VA won't pay for anything
less than the full blown Private Pilot Certification Course part 141.
I'll be flying out of Wright Brothers Airport just south of Dayton, OH in a
Cessna 152. When I complete the course I will go to Red Stewart Field in
Waynesville for my tailwheel endorsement in either an Aeronca or Cub.
I start flying on the 19th of this month. Aircraft and instructor are
booked!

Donna Hanshew, the Manager of Flight Training at Wright Bros. highly recommended
Red Stewart Field for all my training outside of this program. Many pilots
I know speak of them like you do Jack. That is where I was going to originally
get my sport license.

John, If you have the option, I would suggest starting in a tail dragger. Then
you can switch to the training wheel.
I learned in 150s and had a lot of habits to get past.

Having told you to go with a taildragger first. Sounds like your plan to get into
one quickly should work.
Don't let people talk down the 152. I owned a 1958 Cessna 150. The fastback straight
tail version. It cruised everywhere at 100MPH. very cheap to buy and fly.
A lot of guys who will look down their nose at you in a Cessna 152 don't fly
their expensive planes very much. Too expensive.

I was hanging around Stewart one day talking to one of the instructors and
he told me he went to Ohio University and got all of his ratings. Than he
came to Waynesville and learned how to fly.

Santiago,
Drain holes are a good idea any place water might collect.
After the infamous rain deluge during Brodhead 2010 NX18235 had water
sloshing around in the rudder, elevators and ailerons. I had to poke a
few additional holes before I could fly home.

Hi everybody!
I covered the tail surfaces and I am currently making the drain holes.
My question is, does any of you made =8B=8Bdrain holes in
the fin and rudder? I have seen many pictures looking for this, and I
think most people don't have drain holes in the fin, is that correct?
Thanks!

I highly recommend Red Stewart Airfrield for your flight training. I started flying
there back in 1993. At that time they had 4 J-3, Champ, T-craft, couple 150's
, 172, and a couple other airplanes. In my opinion you can't ask for a more
interesting experience. I started flying the J-3 Cub and then progressed to
the C-150 to get my Private License. I was 18 years old and it was a perfect
place for someone like me. They gave me a job in the summer time. I washed planes
and mowed many acres of grass, On my first day of work they had me run across
the airport and asked a guy for some prop wash ( which was the newbie joke).
LOL, but what could have been better at that age. It's a family ran business
that has been there since 1946. When you stop into the airport you will more
than likely meet Cubby, Kathy, Emerson, Sara,and Dink. Many of my friends learned
to fly at Red's and we can't recommend it enough to all the new comers and
the ones that want to learn something about grass roots taildraggers.
Red Stewart's doesn't have a 141 program so the VA and GI bill's will not work.
Going to a flight school like Wright Brothers isn't a bad thing. You can get
your ratings fast and once you get finished with all your training, going to Red
Stewart's will be a breeze.
If you live closer to Columbus. You can check out See Aviation at the Centerburg
Airport. Bill See has 2-3 very nice Champs and a C-172. He specializes in Tailwheel
instruction. Bill Built a nice bunk house for people that traveled to
his airport for instruction. Shad also keeps his Pietenpol at this airport.
Here is a picture of one of Waynesvilles/ Red Stewart Cub's/ on skis..
a little long winded, sorry
Dewey
