Thank you Oscar. I agree that the relaxing, if any, is minimal.-

for supporting her husband during all those years he labored away producin

Hola Santiago,
Congratulations on passing your inspection! Your airplane is a work of art
and that prop is a thing of beauty. I am sure your visit here in '08 was so
mewhat of a help and also a blessing to all of us that got a chance to meet
you in person at Brodhead. I still remember how much fun we had up in Oshk
osh on our daily missions of searching out all the needed tidbits you had o
n your want list. Buena suerte amigo.

Hi all!
Last Tuesday we were visited by an engineer from the ANAC (something like y
our FAA). Here in Argentina an inspection is requiered prior to cover (actu
ally two) and finally after an entire day looking at the Piet and inspectin
g every detail we were authorized to finish the plane. Fortunately erveryth
ing is fine and we didn't have any observation made.
We were able to assemble the plane, so here are some photos.
Saludos
Santiago

Santiago,
What a beautiful airplane. I do have a question. It looks like your Cabane struts
are wrapped with something. Is that something you can discuss or is it top
secret? Does it make the plane Stealthy? Maybe I'm just seeing things that
don't exist?
I can't wait to see it finished. After flying a few A powered Piets, I wish I
had one. It is a completely different feeling than flying a Cont. or Corvair
powered plane. Nothing like a slow turning engine on a plane.
Congratulations,

from Tasmania, Australia
Wonderful to see your progress Santiago and I wish our FAA here still had p
re-cover inspections like they used
to but like everything else...they have made cuts.
I'm so thankful that we get to meet other Pietenpol builders at Brodhead fr
om far, far away countries and that you
take the huge amount of time and effort (and money) to travel here.
We were fortunate enough to meet up with Javier Cruz a few years back from
Mexico. Javier flew jets for the
Mexican Government and was an enthusiastic Piet builder. Haven't heard from
him in a few years but such a nice man.
Simon and Susan will be here from Tasmania at Brodhead and Arthur Johnson (
now flying Corvair Piet) from Australia
will also be attending Brodhead this summer. Arthur rode with a buddy halfw
ay around the planet without much sleep
on airliners to be at Brodhead a few years back and will be in attendance a
gain this summer.

I'll have to talk with Simon and Susan at Brodhead as I have some good memories
of my visit there. Good people, beautiful place, and large beers!

| Subject: | Re: Relaxing of Fabric |
One airport coffee shop story goes that one old plane (tripacer, I think) was tightly
covered and painted black during summer. When It got good and cold that
winter the cloth contracted and "bent" some of the frame. May just be an old
wives tale.

Thanks!! you all are very kind to me.-=0AWe carved that prop using Howard
Henderson's plans, it's a 76x42 that I hope would be good enough for my en
gine....I will have to use my own unofficial fishing scale! : )=0AScott, my
cabane struts are wrapped with.....black duct tape. The struts are round t
ubing with an aluminum V glued as a trailing edge. I wanted an antique look
and didn't have fabric tape to wrap the struts, will do the same on my fly
ing struts.=0ASaludos=0A=0ASantiago
