It seems like it would be a problem but I only notice the heavy left wheel weight when I have it on the scales. I thought the problem would go away when I rebuilt the plane. But it didn't. In fact the weight difference never changed. I was thinking it had something to due with more paint on one wing than on the other. Or perhaps that lost whiskey bottle. Nope. None of the above. I can only guess that the wing spars don't all weight the same. I quit worrying about it, and the plane never complains about it either. Hey Gary, Maybe this is why one of your wings was lower than the other one at Los Banos? Opps, Did I just type that???

Blue Skies, Steve D UNCLASSIFIED ________________________________ Message 6 _____________________________________ Time: 10:01:32 AM PST US Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: Re: Dan's offbalance Piet From: Rick Holland Same with mine, about a 4 pound difference. May have been a slight lean while weighing, I know the fuselage was horizontal but did not check for wings horizontal. rick On Tue, Sep 17, 2013 at 9:03 AM, AircamperN11MS wrote: > Scott.liefeld@lacity.org> > > Dan, > > My plane has the very same issue.

I received my plans from Andrew yesterday and am getting as much info as possible. One thing I did notice was that the balance info on the plans indicates one side is heavier than the other. I don't recall which side and by how much, but I thought it interesting in light of the thread on this topic. Anyway, enough for now. Kind Regards, Dave Thursby (Simi Valley, CA) ________________________________ Message 8 _____________________________________ Time: 11:39:23 AM PST US Subject: Re: Pietenpol-List: First Post From: Rick Holland Welcome Dave, and the fact that you noticed the weight difference in the documents means that you are more observant than me and many on this forum, which means if you get all four of the Bingelis books and study them the same way you will do fine building your Pietenpol.
