I had a sandwich and coke with Martha Lunken last night. My Piqua, OH EAA chapter
met at "The End Zone" in Covington, OH for our monthly meeting. We try to
get there at least once a year. All other meetings are held in the Hartzell
Hangar at the airport.
Martha regularly flies up from Lunken airport in her Cessna 180 for the meeting
and flies home the same evening. She will likely by my flight examiner when
I go for my Sport License.
She told me she once owned a Pietenpol built by Bernard himself. She believes
it is now in Wisconsin. Can anyone tell me more about the whereabouts of this
aircraft and who owns it?
Thanks

Interesting. I did my flight exam with her back in Oct. It was as low
stress and relaxed as could be. During the test she told me her flying
stories of the area....Many times while reading her flying mag articles
I wished I could meet her and never dreamed I would be able to fly with
her.

John,
That would be NX18224. It is owned by Gary Baglien. Frank Pavliga restored it
for him a couple of years ago. I think it was built around 1937 and I think
it might have been the last Model A Piet that Mr. Pietenpol built himself. By
the time Martha had it in the 70's I don't think it looked much like it did in
the 30's. Frank took it back to it's original configuration with the exception
of the Waco style wing mounted radiator. Mr. Pietenpol had hung the radiator
from the wing just like the Waco 9's and 10's had. I believe Gary wanted
the radiator to be more Pietenpol-like so Frank did it that way.

Here's some more inspiration. I installed the prop yesterday. I have a
couple of minor things to finish up and then one final check before
first engine start. If all goes well that will happen today.
Here are a couple of pictures.

With all this talk about sunsets, I just gotta say I'm pretty partial to the sunrises.
There's just something about the calm, still mornings that just can't
be described.
Just don't pay attention to the dorky look on my face. :D

UNCLASSIFIED
A photographer buddy described the High Plains differences in the light for sunset
and sunrise. If I remember correctly Sunrise is brighter, whiter and crisper
light. Sunset is more golden, diffuse (how about that word) and softer. Has
to do with the dirt stirred up by farming and heat rising during the day.

| Subject: | Re: West Coast Piet Fly-In 2014 |
Thanks for the offers, gents. My hope would be to fly straight on down to the
fly-in site all in one shot, but if the midday winds kick up as high as I saw
them around Tracy where the 205 and the 5 triangulate, I would strongly consider
stopping in Santa Rosa for the evening.
Or maybe that's not the Air Camper way? Do we soldier on, in the face of adversity,
and take the pummelling no matter what? Is that what Bernard would have
done (or what "Axel" Purtee does)? Maybe I just need to man up and do it, wind
or no wind ;o) I have a year to get toughened up, in any case ;o)

Wow Rick,
I count 7 airplanes it that hanger. Just amazing. The Piet look the best if you
ask me. Good luck on the engine run. Don't forget to tie the tail down so
it won't fall over on its nose. I have seen it happen to the same guy more than
once. Thorp T-18 without wings attached since you were going to ask anyway.
Cheers,

| Subject: | O-200 prop for sale |
Disclaimer: I am not selling this prop and I do not know much about it. In the
garage with the A75 that I bought and which now hangs on my airplane, was a polished
metal prop that I was not interested in. The family is trying to clear
out these items and would like to sell the prop. The only picture I have of
it is attached, and I did a little bit of tracking down of the numbers on it
with McCauley. The clearest number on it is the Type Certificate TC918, which
narrows it down to 13 groups of propellers under that TC. The number 1A102 is
also visible on it, and according to McCauley that narrows it down to the Cessna
A150, L, M, and 150L, M.
Of that bunch, the C-150L was the most produced model, so I assume that's what
it fits. In that case, it is probably a 69x48 for the O-200. However, it may
have been cut down or modified from stock. There is currently one such prop
listed on Barnstormers for $850 but I suspect it is in much better condition than
the one I'm referring to.
I have no other information on this prop. Call Tom Campbell, (210)325-9599 in
San Antonio, TX if you need more info.
