Chris,
David has been fun to hang with. He is very interested in the people, their stories/history
and all airplanes, Antiques/Homebuilts and otherwise. It will
be great to have him at our airport.
I think I still owe you a ride. I don't remember you going up with me last year.
We'll get you up this time.
See you in June,

Very cool guys.
Couple of questions :
Are you building from plans or the kit?
The website does not give price on just plans.
Website says that the plans construction is different from the kit version. Does
the plans version require all those slots and tabs?
Always admired the old school floats from flying and glider. Was that design ever
a consideration, or just to inefficient?
Thanks; Paul

Sure be careful, in the flying and glider magazine one guy rolled his plane
over into the water twice because he placed the floats in the wrong place.

We are building right from plans, I havent seen a kit yet. It is an old set
of plans I;m not sure if they sell them anymore.
It does require lots of stringers. Flying Glider manual has old designs,
these are pretty much current technology.

Subject: | Steel Nails and Bulkhead discoloration |
Hi Piet builders,
Got a generic wooden plane question for y'all. I have an airframe that steel nails
were used to attach a bulkhead to the fuselage framing. The glue joints look
good; but, I have discoloration everywhere he put the steel nails. (Note he
did end up going to brass, but about half the structure he used steel). Is this
something some of you have seen in the past? If so, what are your thoughts?
Remove and replace, or seal and monitor?
Thanks,
Brian Durham

Closest I came to a ride in your plane was this, http://www.westcoastpiet.com/images/WCP_2013_Gathering/IMG_0512.JPG
I realized Sunday morning as you were getting ready to leave that I forgot to
get a ride.
Sure sucked to be left standing on the ground as everyone flies away. I guess
I need to build faster.

There are more suitable candidates than any of these.

Subject: | Re: Steel Nails and Bulkhead discoloration |
Brian,
The nails don't provided any structural strength. Some guys remove all the nails
for a small weight savings. Some just leave them in. Since you live in a damp
area I would go ahead and remove all that you can then sand the ugly off and
reseal. I would hate to have a nail head rust off then Polk through the fabric.
I'm not sure there is really a right answer to your question. Just personal
preference.
My 3 cents. Good luck.
