Good morning fellow pietenpolers
Just a quick question about the center section. does the 1/8" plywood
bottom get bent to match the wing ribs? It only makes sense and from
what I could find online that is the case but I'm wanting to make
sure.....
Regards,
Charles B

Yes. Cut the compression struts to the shape of the under surface. You will also
have option of adhering fabric to plywood or , some have (like myself), added
faux undersurface cap strips that blend in with nose and tail ribs, to keep
look of rest of wing. I plan on drilling small holes in ply where the stitching
will go. Not my idea, but I like it.

| Subject: | minimum equipment list |
>From my A&P friend, who is also an EAA Tech Counselor and prolific builder and
pilot:
================
I attached an article on the minimum requirements for an Amateur Built Experimental
aircraft. The minimum requirements fall into three categories for the minimum
requirements. Day VFR, Night VFR, and Day/Night IFR.
Now assuming the Piet referenced is a non electric, Day VFR Aircraft, if you go
down the list, the only piece of Equipment that *MIGHT* be required is an ELT.
Everything else is optional.
So, to start with, a MEL is not required for an amateur built Experimental aircraft.
I have none for any of the three planes I have built. The only requirements
are the basic FAA required paperwork such as Airworthiness, operating limitations
and current inspection. If this owner chooses to create a MEL for his
2 seat non electric Day VFR Piet, it should only have one item on the list
and that is a current ELT.
Now, having written the above based on this article from Sport Aviation, I don't
know of any DAR that will license a plane without items 1 - 7, 9, 12, 15, and
23. Based on that, he could create a MEL with those items on it, but the reality
is that he should call it a PMEC (Personal Minimum Equipment Checklist)
or something similar so as to not confuse any FAA personnel with a genuine MEL
which has legal implications and could be used to ground his aircraft or for
an insurance company to bail on a pay out.

| Subject: | Re: insurance question again. |
I'll add my data point. I've been flying without insurance almost since day one,
but when I moved to Medford (controlled field; international, port of entry,
etc.) I couldn't rent a hangar without carrying liability so I took out a policy.
Pretty reasonable, in line with what others have quoted for theirs (couple
of hundred $$ a year, through Falcon). I have a couple of hundred hours in
taildraggers. I am the only covered pilot (operator). Nothing that I've seen
in the policy about limiting passengers or rides.
I got to thinking about this liability insurance as I watched my neighboring pilot/hangar
friends operate their airplanes around me... immaculate Beech Duke,
gorgeous RV-8, very nice Skylane, and so forth. If I'm hand-propping Scout and
the airplane gets away from me and decides to go kiss up to that Duke, I'm
suddenly out of sport aviation if I don't have some liability insurance. Even
worse if Scout goes after a warm body, with or without me at the controls.
