Hey, ya know, I got to thinking after studying that Bleriot replica at Brod
head...... That thing has a huge prop, 50HP and only turns 1200 RPM. Why
won't mine fly with the 4-blader? I have at least 50 HP and 1600 rpm? I got
half a mind to try it after all......next trip up north.

Just saw this on the Facebook page for the UK Pietenpol Club. The photo is
from 1967, and depicts the Piet that was built with two A-65 engines, in a
stacked configuration. Can't for the life of me figure out how that could
have been an idea worth pursuing.
Regardless, check out the cabane struts. Might be the first Piet ever buil
t
with the cabane struts tilted forwards.

Subject: | Re: Speed- was; Moving the wing back |
Speaking of speed, at Brodhead I got several comments from the boys I flew
in with (Jack Phillips and Gene Rambo) how they couldn't believe how fast I
was going on the way over there from Poplar Grove.....76 MPH. Not bad for
a model A and a huge radiator in the way. Don't really know what my secret
is, although I suppose I could attribute it all to my (expert) prop-carving
abilities. But seriously, after sitting through some airfoil forums at OSH
I surmised that it just might have something to do with the fact that I su
pported the aft edge-top of the wing LE ply so that it couldn't (didn't) si
nk-down with the fabric shrinking. What do y'all think?

It looks like it may be a little tricky putting the six prop bolts through the

Great. Thanks. I was hoping to get there to take a close look at a Ford

Hey Bob,
I remember a similar problem getting my strainer(s) to screw nicely into the
aluminum weld-on fitting. Assuming you have the matching sizes.
I forced one, NOT the way to go because the brass just rethreads the
aluminum making it worthless when you need to remove it. I bought the
correct size national pipe thread tap and lightly cleaned out the aluminum
bushing threads. I also needed to do this because the finger strainer
didn't want to go far enough in. It stuck out way too much and was ugly.
Also, ck the brass threads for nicks and dings which could be making things
harder.
Ck for proper size first though.
Remember NOT to use pipe tape.

With 220# static thrust it should fly, I think. It might even spin up
farther when it's moving through the air.
I also think that those big paddles out at the ends are producing way
more drag than they are generating thrust and angular momentum,
especially at the increased airspeed that they're traveling at compared
to the inner portion of the blade. I think you'll get your RPM back up
and produce more thrust if you recarve the blade with a shorter cord and
a thinner profile out near the ends which I'm sure you can do and retain
the antique look you're going for. I would never suggest you should
stick a prop on your plane that looks like the one on Aberle's Phantom
biplane
(http://4.bp.blogspot.com/-KTV8PiUG21I/UUcg9a41mpI/AAAAAAAAAQE/8lD77BrI3iE/s1600/100_1470.JPG),
but there's a reason it looks like that - fat from the center to the
middle, and thin and narrow at the tips.
Of course, this is all TLAR engineering from your friendly neighborhood
physicist who does NOT hold a degree in aerospace engineering. Your

Had the same problem. Harbor Fright sells a tap and die set (3 taps and

the tank. Good part, tank held the flange securely while I tapped it out.

As long as the gross weight of the plane is less than 1230 lbs you can fly it as
a light sport. LSA designation is for the factory built plane and the E-LSA
would be a kit or plans built Light sport. Your airplane is better kept in the
experimental category. Fewer restrictions and will holder more value if you
decide to sell it. I have been flying mine for about six years without a medical.
All you need is a current drivers license. Don't change a thing.

Since it doesn't do anything a LSA can't, there's no overriding reason to register
one over the other.
An example I can think of is if you put lights in it, may as well register it normally
so it could be flown at night by a private or above.
Yes, you can exercise LSA in any plane as long as it meets the requirement of light
sport, it doesn't have to be registered light sport. It's easier to register
a plane light sport is why that exists. In your case, it doesn't really
matter in any way that I can think of.

I believe that to be correct. I'm sure others could better explain. I don't like
night flying and don't have lights on my plane, so I haven't even looked into
that. I fly because I like the view from above and night flying doesn't give
me the same warm fuzzy feeling. Besides I can go outside and look up at the
stars at night if I want to see lights. Without paying for fuel.

Thanks for the answers. I remember some big push for people to register their
planes as E-LSA but could not remember the reasoning.
I have a good friend who is a military flight surgeon. He told me if I ever have
a question about getting a class 2 or 3 medical to call him BEFORE going to
the AME. he will check me out and if I am not going to pass, I will simply start
excercising my privaleges as a Sport Pilot.
If you fail a medical flight exam you can't be a sport pilot. If you have never
failed one, you can just begin excercising your privilages.
I have hopes of getting my CFI (and Instrument and commercial on the way). If I
lose my physical i will be sunk. But I can Excercise my privilages as a Sport
pilot instructor if I have not failed a physical.
Blue Skies,
Steve D
PS I advise almost all beginning pilots to go Sport Pilot first. Go flying, enjoy
yourself, If you need a 4 seater get a private ticket.

I beg to differ. One of my most memorable flights was during the training phase
for my Private certificate.
We took off just at dusk for a one-hour flight. There was a gathering thunderstorm
off to the left which kept pace with us the entire flight. The storm blocked
the moonlight so it was very dark - very quickly. The remainder of the sky
was severe clear with no turbulence and very little wind. Almost immediately
after takeoff the instrument panel lights went out so I went digging for my
miniature flashlight but soon discovered that I did not need it as the lightning
flashes illuminated the panel pretty well. I could see the lights at my destination
for the entire trip and they looked so close that I could just reach
out and touch them. There was very little sensation of movement which is what
you guys are complaining about missing but at that moment it would have seemed
out of place.
We beat the storm with 15 minutes to spare, had the plane hangared, and were back
in the FBO drinking coffee before the first drops of rain fell. To this day
I just have to close my eyes and I am back in that little Cessna 152 reliving
it all again.
That is the difference between flying somewhere or just "flying" I think.

Subject: | Re: Flying at night |
Both fun. I do particularly enjoy flying around during sunrise. I've done it
twice light civil and bunches in jets (Navy and commercial). I'd love to experience
it open cockpit.
Night flight is generally calmer. Enough so that I would frequently trim the plane
up and let it land itself (as the flare is optional is heavily built Navy
planes). I'd see how far out I could let go and see if it would maintain all
the way through touchdown (the S3 gets a big nose down pitch as it hits ground
effect, only did that once!).
On cross countries at night in a clamshell canopy plane, I'd have the student turn
off ALL the lights (outside and in) and see a moonless starlit sky from a
new perspective.
Full moon nights where you don't really need lights (from a practical point of
view) are like dusk or sunrise, but it lasts forever and ever...
Seen TONS of fantastic firework displays flying around, those are pretty cool and
something I'd love to see from a Piet. The Vegas strip at night (one visual
approach has you turning right over the Seattle needlepoint looking thingy)
is awesome! The LA basin, DFW metroplex, NYC all much better looking at night.
The grand canyon... not so much! The entire south east after Katrina, again,
big black hole. Up and down a rocky coastal expanse with lots of bio luminism
at night, WOW. Spotting streaking dolphins or submarines because of bio luminism...
again, wow.
Right in the middle of the day, bouncing around, crazy hot, hazy enough that the
view is far from spectacular, some of those flights are merely transportation.
So like most things, it just depends.

Yeah=2C right... and Paul's=2C Ringo's=2C and now Yoko's too. This naming

I suppose we could do like the military guys and just give them all Bureau
numbers=2C like "153297". Those would be stenciled onto the fuselage for e

On a related (unrelated?) line=2C I recently renewed the registration on Sc

registration form... only owner's name=2C address=2C and contact info. An
other example=2C my ex hangar-mate's Druine Turbulent has a VW on it=2C but
the registration shows a Menasco.
